Begin by watching the introductory video regarding John Brown’s attack on Harper’s Ferry in 1859 and the description of the event at the beginning of the document pack.  Next read the documents in the document pack on John Brown.  Use the comprehension questions at the end of each document as a guide to its contents. (The document pack is located under the forum).

Initial Post

On October 16, 1859, John Brown launched an effort to take over a federal armory in Harper’s Ferry, Virginia.  His goal was to arm slaves and start a massive slave uprising.  John Brown’s actions are controversial today.  For this forum you should respond to the overall question: Was John Brown a hero or a madman (or something in between)?

In your initial post you should: 1) explain your overall view of John Brown 2) discuss three arguments in favor of John Brown’s actions from Documents A, C, and E, explaining whether you find them convincing; 3) discuss three arguments opposing John Brown’s actions from Documents B, D, and F, explaining whether you find them convincing.  

Response to Colleagues

You should respond to the posts of two colleagues. (Note: These will become visible only after you have made your initial post). 

In each response to a colleague, you should 1) discuss one point in their argument that you found persuasive – explaining the reason why; 2) discuss one point that your colleague might improve or think about – explaining your reasoning.  

Notes on Sources

You should use only the textbook and the provided documents to respond to the question.  Whenever, you make reference to a document, you should cite it – e.g. (Document A).  If you use words directly from a document, you should use quotation marks.  Please note that it is usually more effective to put the argument of a document in your own words, and if you do include a direct quotation, you should always explain its significance.

The textbook is a free open educational resource (OER). Links to the individual chapters can be found in the Learning Modules. The textbook can be linked here:

1. Describe your body’s physiological reaction to a threatening situation. How does your reaction align with the information in the textbook?
2. Think of a time when you were experiencing stress. How did the social situation influence your stress level? For example, did the individuals you were around make your stress level rise or fall? Were you stressed because of the situation you were in or had you been stressed before? Please be specific in your example.
3. Your textbook discusses minor hassles as a form of stress. Provide an example of a minor hassle in your own life and what you do to cope with the hassle (or what you will start doing after reading this chapter).
4. Provide 2 scientifically based recommendations for coping with negative emotions (hint: this may require a google search. Be sure to cite your source, whether it is the textbook or an online article).
5. Explain how culture influences stress and expression of negative emotions. For example, how is stress viewed in a more individualistic culture like the US compared to a collectivistic culture?

I’m working on a political science writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Pluralist theorists put forth the idea that interest group involvement in policymaking contributed to democratic government.  Can an acceptable balance can be struck between the right of people to pursue their own interests and the need to protect society from being dominated by one or more interests?  Do you believe this balance exists in our society today (and in particular, in Washington, DC)?  In class, we discussed that corporate interests dedicate significant resources to their advocacy efforts and many believe that $$$ control politics.  Do you think this is true?
