Enlighten Me!

Enlightenment Ideas

  • Religious & political freedom

  • Freedom of speech

  • divide the various functions and powers of government

  • Equal education for boys and girls


How We Use Enlightenment Ideas Now

  • We can vote for whom ever we want to & be part of any religion or none at all

  • Americans can openly express opinions publicly without interference from the government

  • The U.S government is divided into the Legislative branch which writes discuses and votes on new law; executive branch which is the president and he/she gets to approve or veto laws and judicial branch they translate the meaning of the Constitution and laws

  • Equal educational opportunities are provided to every boy and girl throughout America
