Conduct independent research to find a source that gives an opinion on either supporting or rejecting Syrian refugees.

Answer 1

Many believe history repeats itself. This rationale often leads historians and others to draw parallels between current events and the past. Throughout your history courses, you have used past events to form arguments, conclusions, and generalizations. It is important to recognize, however, that, simply because someone makes such a connection and uses facts to support it, it doesn’t mean that it is correct or accurate. The ability to distinguish between sound generalizations and misleading oversimplifications is an important skill.
