Historical Narrative: Territories & States

Jot down what you remember about how Manifest Destiny was taught in school (it’s okay if it’s vague!).

*
After reading this week's materials, define "Manifest Destiny" in your own words. *
Write down at least one issue/problem/consequence of the Manifest Destiny ethos. *
Pick a lyric or idea from "This Land is Your Land" and talk about it in relation to the problem you identified in the question above. *
Enduring Stereotype: ‘Backwards’ Rural

What did you notice about the scene in The Wizard of Oz? What does this say about how we portray American rural areas in mainstream media?

*
Enduring Value: State Pride
Can you think of any musical theatre songs connected to state pride?
(As always, don't worry if you can't!)
Optional Notes
Flags for Becca and Shannon
Highlight anything from this week's materials or themes that you'd like to make sure we discuss further in class. (This is an optional question, and will be asked each week - use it to signal Becca and Shannon if you're confused or super passionate about anything, but don't feel pressured to give notes each week.)
Your Space
This fully optional part of each Anthem Analysis won't be graded - it's here in case you want to jot down anything for yourself about the readings, connections to assignments, links to other media, etc.
A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided.
