TO THE TEST OF TIME- Timeline Reflection

reesep21 — 2024-04-15 17:50:03 UTC

I found it very interesting to learn about how people's values changed over time. I learned that the American dream changed into being rich and famous over time, when before it was equality. While people are becoming more equal, the rich get richer and tend to avoid those who aren't rich. The different movements in art throughout American history were also interesting as they showed what people found appealing. Over time people have been more drawn to neutral colors, and in the past people loved vibrant and colorful things.
