Terrorism
Terrorism is the use of violence and intimidation to try and achieve a political goal. There have been many types of terrorist acts in the United States. The most commonly known where the word terrorism is brought up is 9/11. September 11th, 2001 was when a group of people hijacked and crashed two planes into the World Trade Center towers, also known as Twin Towers, causing almost 3,000 American deaths and the collapse of the buildings. Below you will find a Prezi that shows three different topics that link to terrorism.
Politics
The political spectrum is a concept for representing different political stances in relation to
one another. At its most basic, the political spectrum consists of a line or continuum from left to right, with varying shades of opinion in between. The political left represents the democratic party, or liberals. The political right represents the republican party, or conservatives. Below you will find a infographic made with Easel.ly showing the two parties.
