It also show how the philippines reacted towards the invasion of the U.S.A. and how americans felt towards the U.S.A. taking over the philippines.

My second source will be the reading from my history class "A nation among empires". I decided to pick this reading as my source because it contains a lot of information in the topic I'm going to write about spanish colonization in the philippines and how the philippines obtain its independence. Also how the U.S.A took over the philippines and how the filipinos reacted toward this situation.This reading also focus how the U.S.A had a positive impact in the philippines.

I was able to find another source in Jstor that talks about the reasons that made the U.S.A take control over the philippines. It also shows a chart that indicates how the U.S.A. took an advantage of filipinos vulnerability to take control over the country by using its power.

Hi Miriam -
ReplyDeleteThese both look like really good sources. You'll want to be sure to look at who within the U.S. supported these policies and this war, and who opposed them. See if you get a sense of whether your sources are also themselves making arguments about the impact of this intervention.
Keep posting as you find more sources
