We will watch excerpts from documentaries, films, as well as short episodes from series presentations like 10 Days That Unexpectedly Changed America. At the end of each session, the class will discuss what they brainstormed from viewing for a follow-up in the online discussion. Each week, I will post the themes and claims chosen by the students to pursue.
