I Too, Sing America: A History of DIVERSITY, INCLUSION (and Exclusion)

By: Ms. Thomas and Sample Group5th Period “Northrop”

11th Grade United States History

InclusionThe theme for my timeline is diversity and inclusion in American history. I chose this theme because I noticed how many times we discussed immigration, nativism, and laws changing to prevent or allow more people to be citizens. Even as the United States pushes to become a symbol of liberty and freedom it also had this trend of pushing people out or denying them rights. This theme is relevant to US History because it is important to understand who exactly gets to be a part of that history. We often talk about America as if it was always an open and happy place to live but that has not always been true.
