Brief debate on war between the states - You will have two groups debates next class. You only need to know which side you are on.

North - Sarah, Jerica, Justin, Jane S., Yea Young, Eric, Rachel, Cris, Kevin, Michael

South - David, Austin, Ryan, Eldred, Jung, Natalie, Jane R., Daniel, Heejin, Christine

Assignment - Prepare three arguments why war should or should not be avoided. Things to consider are events that have already taken place such as the compromises, supreme court decisions, and acts of violence. What would a war mean to the States? What would it do the economy? homes? families? What would the benefits have been to go to war? drawbacks? What resources did each side have that would help? What would war decide? What would life be like after the war ended?
