Answer

  1. Propaganda is information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or point of view.

  2. WWI being a "total war" means that the countries involved mobilized all of their resources, including civilian and economic, to support the war effort, affecting the entire population.

  3. The Great Migration was the movement of over six million African Americans from the rural Southern United States to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West between 1916 and 1970, seeking better economic opportunities and escaping racial segregation.

  4. Yes, it is possible to be patriotic about the US and criticize the government at the same time. Patriotism involves love for one's country, which can include wanting to improve it by addressing and criticizing its flaws.
