Journal Entry - Asylum - Immigration became an issue in Ireland with the potato famine, and many Irish Immigrants came to America as a result. Currently the subject of Immigration is a political "hot potato" (pun intended). Asylum is defined as...
the protection granted by a nation to someone who has left their native country as a political refugee.
In your journal today, give your opinion on what situations should qualify to grant an immigrant Asylum status (which would allow them to enter and stay in the USA legally)

During the first 50 years in England from 1800-1850 many of the subjects addressing what "human rights" are were being challenged. Suffrage, crime and punishment (including what crimes merit capital punishment) slavery, ownership of property, working conditions, etc, were under scrutiny.
This was occurring at the same time society was instituting strict social behavior norms for its upper class members of society (The Downton Abby class)
There were several changes afoot during this time, this chart lists many of the changes which took place during this time Theme Activity Sheet, review the chart, and list what you feel is the "theme" of this era.
Here is the list of Themes that were under development at this time - Here
Your task will be to express what "theme" of this era was the most important. You will identify which change(s) you feel was the most impactful (even if at the time it was symbolic) to the future development of how society has evolved.
You will be given time in class Tuesday to develop your answer (as I will be out for a district training).
This will be expressed in a paragraph that lists 3 pieces of evidence that supports your opinion about why your "Theme" is correct.
If you finish your answer, you should use the time to continue your outline as Sect #4 is due Thursday
