Crucial Conversations in American History: "Many Voices, One Nation" and "Becoming US"
Crucial Conversations in American History: "Many Voices, One Nation" and "Becoming US"
This collection serves as a preview for the second of six seminar sessions in the 2020 Smithsonian-Montgomery College Faculty Fellowship Program. This year's theme is “Humans and the Footprints We Leave: Climate Change and other Critical Challenges.”
National Museum of American History colleagues Orlando Serrano and Steve Velasquez will discuss the making of the exhibition, "Many Voices, One Nation," and its accompanying educational website, "Becoming US." Together the exhibition and educational website aim to explore not only how the many voices of people in America have shaped our nation, but also to guide high school teachers and students in learning immigration and migration history in a more accurate and inclusive way.
Resources included in this collection have been chosen by the presenters for participants to explore before the seminar itself.
