Discussion Forum Topic for week 8:  Howard Zinn, in this chapter, opens up with some of the reasons why did the colonial poor join the cause of the revolution. Similarly, the Shay’s Rebellion is described to portray the inequities and injustice felt on behalf of the veterans of the revolutionary struggle. What are some of the reasons based upon one may join up the military today? Are they similar to those of 1775? Do those fighting today for our country experience similar complaints as presented by Shay? Elaborate and discuss.

The format for the forum:

The main post: a three to five-paragraphed narrative introducing your idea or reaction, backed with evidence, and a conclusion. A paragraph is understood to be composed of 5-8 sentences with proper citations, references, and style/grammar. The main post is always due on Thursday.

The secondary post(s): a free-flowing discussion engaging others’ comments, with no length requirement yet academic in nature. Evidence-based material only. If you select to introduce evidence – MLA formatting for citations and bibliography is a must. No speculations and don’t forget to cite (in text and at the end of your post). You may start a discussion link through this forum. The secondary post (s) is (are) due by Sunday night, and maybe be posted anytime during the assigned week.
