Finding A Place For World War I In American History: 1914-2018, Jennifer D. Keene
History Faculty Books and Book Chapters
"World War I has occupied an uneasy place in the American public and political consciousness.1 In the 1920s and 1930s, controversies over the war permeated the nation’s cultural and political life, influencing memorial culture and governmental policy.

"The Revolution Will Not Be Televised": Looking At The 1964 Freedom Day Boycott As A Means Of Combating Educational Segregation In New York City Today, Carlos Mendez
CMC Senior Theses
Throughout the 20th century, New York City underwent a number of changes, most of which occurred due to waves of immigration.
