SUMMARY:America at 250! – The Legacy of the Declaration of Independence
DESCRIPTION:There have been thousands of books and articles written about the Declaration of Independence\, and its ringing words make an appearance in every American History textbook. Given all of this commentary and interpretation\, is it still possible to understand the Declaration as its authors understood it? In this seminar\, we will discuss the primary sources that best illuminate the Declaration’s meaning and imbue its words with living significance? \nThis program will be conducted as a Socratic discussion\, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings\, and with the Discussion Leader facilitating the conversation\, instead of lecturing or presenting. Registrants\, therefore\, are highly encouraged to read all the documents in advance and come ready with questions. Teachers will receive a Letter of Attendance at the conclusion of the seminar.

SUMMARY:Reform Movements & the Declaration: Civil Rights
DESCRIPTION:Explore how the Declaration of Independence shaped the struggle for civil rights in America. This webinar examines how activists and movements challenged the nation to live up to its promise of liberty and equality\, highlighting key campaigns\, speeches\, and actions that connected the fight for racial equality to the ideals of 1776. Social studies educators will gain insights into the historical roots of reform and the enduring impact of these movements. \nOur live teacher webinars provide content-rich and interactive professional development through conversation.  We’ll share a reading packet with registrants several weeks before the event and provide space for early discussion between participants.  The documents\, pre-seminar conversation\, and questions asked in the discussion board are vital to shaping the direction of the panelists’ conversation.  Audience members ask questions during the event\, comment in the lively chat\, and share resources and ideas. \nOur online seminars meet monthly on select Saturday mornings from 10.45 am–12 pm ET. Those who remain digitally present for the duration of the conversation will receive an attendance letter from Teaching American History for 1.25 hours of professional development.

SUMMARY:643: Inclusion and Exclusion Under the Constitution
DESCRIPTION:HIST 643 O1C / POLSC 643 O1C: Inclusion and Exclusion Under the Constitution\nIn the nearly 240 years since its drafting\, the United States Constitution has been transformed\, primarily (though not exclusively) through judicial interpretation\, from a document that was written principally with an eye on white male landholders to one that requires protection of the right to same-sex marriage. During that time\, there has been a constant push-pull between inclusion and exclusion under the Constitution. Yet it is the genius of what the Founders crafted that the overall trajectory has been one of increasing and universal inclusion. This course will examine this crucial process from Indian Removal to Obergefell v. Hodges. \nSchedule: Tuesdays & Thursdays\, 8:15-11:30 p.m. ET\nCourse Materials: Syllabus and Course Pack
