History Rocks APUSH Project- In The End

11th Grade for AP US History class, we had to create a "music video" for a theme for the unit that we are learning. We received the "West' and we chose to make the video to the song of "In the end" by Linkin Park. I hope you enjoyed it. btw pay attention to 1:20
Lyrics:

Shane:
I farm with

Arun:
One crop
I have no land
Ive never had the money
Or had a hand
The Homestead Act
Got me some cheap, dry land
And now Im stuck
(Please help me)

Land is a (valuable thing)
Watch your crops grow as the
Seasons change
Dont let the cowboys
Take your cows away
The government hates you
(Its so unfair)

Tommy:
Then I began to mine
Watch the gold just explode
my pockets
Exploited the land
And changed the scene
But I dont really care I
(Just want cash)

The dry air didnt hurt me
So I mined even more
I got so rich
What it meant to me
Will eventually be
A memory
(of time when)

Shane:
I traveled west
And got so far
But even then
I wish I was in my home

The government
Tricked the poor
And now Im stuck
With so much wasted la-and

Anil:
Im a rancher
And I can not stand when
These cowboys come and
Ruin my land
I keep that in mind
As I design something to
Chase the cowboys out and
(Keep my land)

I thought some barbed wire would help me
It helped to protect my property
Remembering all the times they destroyed my land
Im surprised (It got so far)


Things (arent the way they were before)
You cant even recognize the land anymore
The water and the soil
Need to be conserved to
(Preserve the west)

The President helped save some parks
And even though he tried
It didnt work out
(What it meant to me
will eventually be a
memory of a time when)

Shane:
I traveled west
And got so far
But even then
I wish I was in my home

The government
Tricked the poor
And now Im stuck
With so much wasted la-and
