Paper Details
This first reading response assignment corresponds to Sept. 14, “The End of the Old Line” in the syllabus. You will want to submit your response here, in 700-1,000 words, remembering to cite the articles which you quote, when appropriate. While you should read all three, it’s fine if your response only looks at two of them in any depth. The three articles, again, are:
“How Firm a Foundation,” https://reflections.yale.edu/article/how-firm-foundation-churches-face-future/hundred-year-transition-protestant-privilege
“Roman Catholics and the American Mainstream,” http://nationalhumanitiescenter.org/tserve/twenty/tkeyinfo/tmainstr.htm
Kevin Kruse, “One Nation Under God,” https://www.npr.org/books/titles/396363099/one-nation-under-god-how-corporate-america-invented-christian-america#excerpt
Your prompt: what role did Christianity seem to play in public life during the 1950s and 1960s?
