HIS222W — Recent American History
Exploring American history from the failure of Reconstruction in the 1870s to the fall of the Iron Curtain in the 1980s, this course examines the traditional story, as well as interesting events and fascinating people from all walks of life. This class will explore the voices of those Americans whose history is traditionally marginalized in U.S. History textbooks. Through study of working-class families trying to make it in the Industrial Age to the reformers of the Progressive Era, Americans at war, activists fighting for rights, hot points in the Cold War and much more, we will examine the social, political, and cultural structures of America.
