Conference

I had my conference for my final project with my professor this past week. While going over my paper she said I had good historical information, but I did not really have my own twist on it. She helped me come up with an angle for it though. Instead of just telling about what Thomas Paine did for our country, I am going to relate some of his writings to events that have gone on after his time period in American history. I will be using Age of Reason, Common Sense, and Rights of Man. I am going to take some of his views on slavery, monarchies, and women's rights just to name a few. He was ahead of his time and his ideas were not really accepted in his time for the most part. I will be arguing that without ideas/leaders like Paine America would not be what it is today.
