Today we begin claiming our life, language and land.
Description:
Welcome to U.S. History! In this course, we will examine the events that led to the creation of the country called the United States. We will examine the effects of the creation on Indigenous and African populations, and the quest to uphold the ideals it espoused; most importantly, we will study how U.S. history relates to Hawthorne, your family, and the World. Over the next year you will develop your understanding of American History and participate in a dynamic dialogue about the past, present and future of this complex country. We will use a variety of sources for our class material including videos, music, primary sources, textbook excerpts, magazine and journal articles, book chapters, and on-line sources.
Objective:
Our study of United States history will focus on the essential questions:
Who is American? Who gets to define what America is?
What is your relationship to America?
