Wilson’s War Message Discussion
Wilson advocated for U.S involvement in WWI as a response to the attack on the American society following the sinking of the American ships, loss of American lives in the war, and fight for the ultimate peace of the world (Wilson, 1917). The German submarine attack on American ships was the primary motivation behind Wilson’s call for the U.S to enter into WWI. If I were in this Congress, I would have voted to go to war with Germany. The U.S has always been a champion for the protection of human rights, and Germany was violating human rights (Wilson, 1917). Besides, peace must exist for democracy to flourish. Thus, going to war with Germany was important to bring about peace and promote democracy.
Marcus Garvey Discussion
Garvey notes that the world is divided into separate racial groups, and the time has come for the Africans to come together and work towards a shared purpose which is bettering their condition. Disunity among the Negros is a big problem, and nothing can be achieved without unity, thereby uniting the Negros is a priority (Garvey, 1921). Marcus Garbey suggests that unity is the way to building and achieving prosperity for the Negros. This is contrary to Booker T Washington’s argument for accumulating industrial skills and business ownership to uplift the blacks and W.E.B. Du Bois’ argument that education for the most talented and bring individuals is the way to uplift blacks (Washington, 1895 & Du Bois, 1903). Garbey’s unity suggestion is great as it would enable the black people to come together and work as one towards uplifting themselves and improving their conditions.
