What did the Sedition Act forbid?
How did the war change the lives of women and African Americans as a result of their participation in WWI? What new opportunities were opened up to them?
Why did so many race riots / race massacres occur during and immediately after WWI?
How did the Treaty of Versailles plant the seeds of WWII?
