https://padlet.com/oheffernan1/ch680ei2b317wel1/wish/931047924 In my opinion, the simultaneous rise in sectionalism and nationalism during the 1800’s eventually lead to the Civil War because of the clash it had in power. Even today, republicans are split with democrats and we are on the brink of a second civil war. In my opinion, there will always be conflict in the United State because there will never be a political agreement that the majority of the people can come to agree on. That is the meaning of free speech. Everyone gets to say if they agree or disagree with something.]]> 2020-11-17 10:24:55 UTC https://padlet.com/oheffernan1/ch680ei2b317wel1/wish/931047924
