Download the document 1996ReconstructionDBQ.pdf (you can find it in the Study Guides and Resources link to the right if clicking on the link didn't work). Print out the document and bring it to Monday's class. Before you come to class read through and annotate each document. In your annotations note three things:
1. Who is the author and why that may be important to the document (consider the author's knowledge and bias)?
2. What does the document actually say?
3. Does this document offer opinion or facts or both?
4. How might you use this document to support one aspect of your argument? Note that some documents won't fit your argument and you should not use them.
In class I will return your reconstruction papers and give you time to look at them and my feedback. Then I'll give your tables time to discuss the documents and how you might use them in your individual papers.
