This is an 4-week course that meets once a week for 1 hour. This class examines the history of the United States, starting with post-World War II until the present day. The class is a lecture- and discussion-based course. Participation is encouraged but not required. I enjoy telling stories from the perspective of the people who lived through and experienced the events discussed, so much of the class will focus on historical narratives, pictures, and videos of events being studied. The course will provide multiple perspectives, including the historical perspectives of women, as well as exploring the experiences of racial and ethnic groups, including African American and migrant history. No prior knowledge is required. Week 1 Introduction End of WWII Truman Doctrine Marshall Plan NATO Week 2 Korean War Cuban Missle Crisis Vietnam War Week 3 Civil Rights Movement Watergate Cold War Week 4 OPEC Crisis Air Traffic Control Crisis Iran/Contra USSR and United States relations
