Opposition to Federal Civil Rights Legislation Discussion
Explain how Goldwater justified opposition to federal civil rights legislation in Chapter 4. Then explain Goldwater’s thoughts on education in Chapter 9. After addressing these two chapters, explain how his two positions in these chapters are consistent with Goldwater’s states’ rights principled conservatism (Chapter 3, though you can also use Chapters 1 and 2, as well). Answer using the relevant text as evidence. Do not use outside sources or contemporary examples. Doing either or both will result in a low score, if not a 0.
