The goal of the club is to provide a space for learners to examine current events within an ecosocial justice framework and draw historical connections. 

I have a master of arts degree in American history, and bachelor of arts degrees in English, journalism, and political science. I was the director of a social justice center for three years during which time I routinely taught about and facilitated conversations about historical and current political controversies for both teen and adults participants. I have been teaching history, social studies, and English Language Arts classes for the past five years. I was also a newspaper reporter and editor for 15 years. 

This class is for students who are enrolled in or who have completed at least one of my middle school or high school level history or social studies courses.
