Secondary Source: America Enters the War
Update your Portfolio: Write a letter to President Wilson
You are a concerned citizen living in America in April 1917. You've read all the news about war in Europe and around the globe. You've heard about the Lusitania, the unrestricted submarine warfare, and the sinking of American ships. You are an adult (early 20s) and you or your friends and family could be called to war if your President asks Congress for a Declaration. Write a persuasive letter to President Wilson explaining your opinion on whether the U.S. should or should not enter the war. Use information from the document and what you've learned in class and from Chapter 13 to shape your letter. The requirement is 500 words AT LEAST!
