By narrowing down what you want to talk about. There was a lot that happened in the 19th century, and a lot's going on right now. What in particular would you like to compare? Politics, business, fashion, science, religion? Just pick one of them, and be specific. Otherwise, you'll write a book!

Read Judith Wellman's THE ROAD TO SENECA FALLS/Univ.of Illinois Press/c2004, which was highly recommended to me. It covers the earliest days of the suffrage movement. You can research these pertinent names online: Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Susan B. Anthony, the Abolitionist Movement 1840-1848, Frederick Douglass, the North Star newspaper (he published the Declaration of Women's Sentiments in 1848) Jane and Richard Hunt, the M'Clintock family and Seneca Falls New York history.

an owl\n\nFew things in this life have held the attention of Man as successfully as that of a good mystery. How many times did we, as young people, pick up a "Hardy Boys" mystery or try to unravel the intricate web of mysterious, unexplainable clues with which Sherlock Holmes had to deal? And yet, for over two hundred years, one of the greatest mysteries, of all time, has been staring us in the face. We wrestle with this mystery every day of our lives without so much as giving it a passing thought. With its majestic wings mightily spread, I am referring to the great seals of the United States found on the back side of the one dollar bill of United States Currency. \n\n\nBefore we continue to address this topic any further, it would be in your interest to physically get a one dollar bill and follow along with the illustrations found in this chapter in order that you get the 'big picture'. \n\n\nLooking directly at the back side of the one dollar bill you now hold, you can plainly see that it has two distinct seals between the four number 1's and the four 'one' words spelled out. \n\n\nHow did these two 'great' seals originate? Well, I know three stories dealing with its origins. The first one tells of how Thomas Jefferson, a Mason; Benjamin Franklin, a Rosicrucian; and John Adams, also a Mason, were commissioned, on July 4, 1776, to design these seals. \n\n\nThis is the historical aspect. \n\n\nThe second story relates that these three patriots were given the design by "illuminated" Masons. The third story holds that, while trying to design this seal in his home, on June 17, 1782, Thomas Jefferson was suddenly approached by a "being", cloaked in black. The "being" allegedly presented Jefferson with a red velvet bag which contained two plaques. Turning around, the "being" walked into Jefferson's garden and mysteriously vanished. \n\n\nThe two plaques that were in the red velvet bag were the two Great Seals of the United States. I, personally, agree with the latter story. As you continue in this chapter, you will realize that these seals are too brilliantly put together that it had to be demonically-inspired by Satan. Whichever story 'you' believe, one outstanding fact remains unchanged; these seals were not to inaugurate the Declaration of Freedom, but were designed as a tribute to a 'new world order' that would take over the Thirteen Colonies of the United States. \n\n\nIt was on May 1, 1776, when Dr. Adam Weishaupt founded the Bavarian Order of the Illuminati. Weishaupt was a Professor of Jewish Canon Law at the University of Ingolstadt in Bavaria, Germany. He was born a Jew and later converted to Roman Catholicism. A former Jesuit Priest, he left the order to form his own organization. It was Weishaupt's belief that only a chosen few had enough "illumination" to guide and rule the world. The problem was simply this: where would he find these few intellectual "lightbearers?" Subsequently, he found them in various lodges and orders of the day. He infiltrated the Jesuit Order, the Masonic lodges, the Rosicrucian Order and other orders of antiquity. But, all this didn't happen without reprisal. Many lodges and orders that had been infiltrated virtually warned Weishaupt to discontinue his activities. Fortunately for Weishaupt, Thomas Jefferson, in 1784, had recently been named the United States Ambassador to France. Jefferson, a Mason, favored Weishaupt's 'new order' and came to his aid. The 'new order' was now guaranteed to continue and it eventually became known as the "Order of the Illuminati." \n\n\nAs their founder continued to expand the ranks and membership, two major events transpired; five years after he was named Ambassador to France, Thomas Jefferson returned home to become Secretary of State. Shortly after his arrival, on September 15, 1789, the United States Congre

"To Kill A Mockingbird" by Harper Lee.\n\nIt's a classic tale depicting two forms of prejudice and demonstrating why prejudice is wrong and ofteb borne of ignorance. It's been taught in American and British schools for the last 30 years and is considered a modern classic.\n\nIt's also my favorite non-science-fiction book... EVER!

I wont give you a Paragraph but I will get you started,\n\nIn the 1850's and early 1860's abolitionists who had the dream of ending slavery angered many southerners who wanted to keep their lasting traditions.  Many historians believe that the abolistionist movement in the north, along with the book "Uncle Toms Cabin" were major contributing factors to the Civil war.\n\n\nGood Luck!
