About This Item
Originally intended as a teaching aid for senior high school social studies and covering a broad scope of civic, government, economic, citizenship and immigration issues, this compilation provides a provocative mid-century impression of America culled from witnesses to the first half of the twentieth century. We are treated to songs from Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger and Malvina Reynolds; speeches from Theodore Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, Martin Luther King, Jr.. and Williams Jennings Bryan; so-called Inchbrag talkInch by cowboys; and pronouncement of an oath of loyalty by Chief John Oberly of the InchOsage Tribe of IndiansInch affirming that he will not conspire with any political parties to overthrow the US government.
