    Description
    Exploring American history from early Native American societies through the Civil War era, this course examines the early history-from the Colonial Era through Reconstruction-of the lands that became the United States. We will cover key political events such as the American Revolution, but will also study the history of the diverse peoples who built a nation (or suffered the consequences of nation-building) in the centuries that shaped the U.S.A. The course will include the voices of traditionally marginalized people, such as African Americans resisting slavery, women calling for the right to vote, workers protesting labor conditions in the Market Revolution, and Native Americans opposing the loss of their lands.
