Assignment:
For this forum, you will need to Google "US history myths," and in a minimum of 250 words, tell us what the myth is, what is the reality, and finally, why you think this it has been immortalized in the American consciousness. For this last part, there is no wrong or right answer. More than anything, I am looking for your opinion. If possible, you should try to limit your myth to a period in history that is relevant to the time period covered by this course.
