Other Details

Parental Guidance
This class will cover early American history, which includes topics of violence, domination, racism, slavery, and discrimination. All topics will be discussed at an age appropriate level. (Please check the age group of the class before registering.) Some of the sources used for this course use derogatory and racist language towards Native Americans, African Americans, and others. My goal for this course is to be inclusive and to highlight how history is often more commonly written from the perspective of the perceived winner and to create an inclusive class that highlights multiple perspectives of history. Live – There may be some Youtube videos that are seen during this class. I will share my screen and learners will not need to access them on their own.
