In what way do these documents demonstrate and alternative view of progress? How do they challenge Carnegie’s view? Do they hold any relevance to the present?

Populist version of

My Country ‘Tis of Thee (circa 1893)

"My country, 'tis of Thee,

Land of lost Liberty,

Of Thee we sing.

Land which the Millionaires,

Who govern our affairs,

Own for themselves and heirs,

Hail to thy King.

Land once of noble braves,

But now of wretched slaves,

Alas! too late!

We saw sweet Freedom die,

From letting bribers, high,

Our unpriced suffrage buy,

And mourn thy fate"
