What kind of project type? Library based study or research, interviews etc with statistics etc
If library research then any subject already suggested would work well.
If interview based, then choose something which it is easy to find data on. Office of population and census surveys is a great resource of past and present study. maybe choose a theme and follow it up in a research of your own.
Family structure, household types would be workable. lots of data out there and possibility to use your own research sample to support or refute findings.
Happy investigating.

Try comparing poverty and hunger during the French revolution, the Great Depression and now post-Katrina. That would be very interesting to do. Read up on the first two--watch the movie MARIE ANTIONETTE, read or watch THE GRAPES OF WRATH and Katrina, you know about and can find sources in journals, magazines, etc.
Good luck on your project.

Welfare in the U.S.
The three time periods:
The Great Depression and the New Deal: 1930 to 1945
War on Poverty: Late 1940s to late 1960s
War on Welfare: 1970s to 1990s
A good book from which to start: From Poor Law to Welfare State by Walter Trattner

interesting question. I do think of racial delight and no racism can coexist peacefully. Becuase I disagree that racial delight is a significant reason in the back of racism. i think that's fairly lack of self belief. each and every real racist I even have ever prevalent replaced into fairly actually the alternative of having delight of their race. They talked the talked however the full reason they sense the ought to down different races is becuase they do no longer fairly have faith Whites, Blacks, Asians are extra effective than actual everyone else. in actuality, they could even secretly sense they are the worst. Like a bully, a racist needs to tear down others to construct themselves up. look at Germany, they felt the ought to create a scapegoat of the Jews and decrease them. Which never could have befell, historians agree, had Germans no longer been ripe for racial prejudice becuase of WWI and the Treaty of Versailles that stripped Germans delight in being German. They have been waiting for anybody to return alongside and tell them Germans weren't in simple terms as solid as actual everyone else they have been extra effective. yet this never could have befell in the event that they hadn't been insecure interior the 1st place. with the purpose to to me, provided that real racial delight is that individual who is going approximately their each and daily lives, each and all of the on the same time as shield interior the understanding that their human beings and ancestors are something to be happy with quite than the insecure losers who sense the ought to connect hate communities and consistently proclaim "______ delight!" then I do have faith racial delight and a loss of racism (raising your self approximately different communities) can ensue on the comparable time.
