    getting progressively worse. As is with most elderly people‚ the television plays a very big role in her daily activities. I would have to say that the TV has become "a member of the family." It is for this reason that my grandmother now lives in fear. This fear unfortunately has taken away my grandmother’s confidence in herself and those around her.

    Susan Weng Reconstruction: Overall Failure. After the Civil war ended in 1865‚ the south was in complete shambles‚ the economy was down‚ there were political struggles‚ and newly freed slaves needed to be included in society.
