We will begin this fact-based curriculum with the earliest decisions made by the founding fathers concerning voting rights and carry it through the 26th Amendment. The last amendment passed in 1971 concerning voting. By the end of class, students will have a better understanding of the history of voting rights in America.

This class will be presented in a fact-based narrative. I am very careful to not engage in opinion. I give no personal opinions of my own. When a student offers their own opinion, I carefully deflect and refer back to the historical facts.
