Here is one answer (from Vanderbilt's Center for Teaching):

And how does it relate to our final assessment and the inevitable 4th Quarter Project?

Oh, and speaking of the final assessment, here are 3 possible topics (in reverse chronological order):

1. The Attack on the Capitol
2. Death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the Battle over the Supreme Court 
3. George Floyd Protests

Can we use Allan Lichtman's prediction system to understand the results of next week's historic election?

Some highlights from bUSH7:

• 10:10:32   From  Federico to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : he meant that democracy, and the ability for citizens to create change, isn’t a state in that it doesn’t just happen. people need to act on their rights and create change
• 10:10:58   From  Lily to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : I believe that John Lewis means the democracy is not a form of government, but rather a thing or belief that people practice
• 10:11:32   From  Beth to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : Democracy is a form of government, but the people have the freedom to choose their representatives and act to change the country.
• 10:13:47   From  Mira to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : Democracy is something people choose to do, it isn’t just a form of government.
• 10:16:24   From  Harry to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : I think what he means is that just because we are in a democracy by living in this country, doesn’t mean that we are actually a part of it and that we have to take action to be a part of it. Basically saying that we have to be more active in our government and do things like vote.
• 10:17:32   From  Casey to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : I believe that when John Lewis says “democracy is not a state, it’s an act”, he is telling society that we can’t have a democracy without fighting for the soul of our nation. We have to build a peaceful community to create an equal, fair, reliable, and trustworthy democracy, but that only comes from acts within the nation first from the people.
• 10:20:40   From  Rory to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : What John Lewis meant was that democracy is not just a form of government, but actions done by citizens such as voting, protesting, or anything else that gives us a voice in how our country should function.

• 10:43:12   From  Sydney to Spiro Bolos(Privately) : Casey’s WiFi we really down so she got kicked out :) :) :)
