I'm still confused :(
Why did the south have to be punished with 10% plan or Wade Davis Bill? What did they do?  I don't have much background about the civil war..
What is a union and why does it matter if they leave?
Please answer,
Thank you!

Anyone interested more in the Second Red Scare, McCarthyism and the Hollywood blacklists should watch the movie "Trumbo" (2015) with the amazing Bryan Cranston!  It's a bit long but really tells the story well!

Your slides are filled with a great amount of information and I would love to download them but I am unable to for more than half of your videos. Is there another way that I could download your slides?
