Whose World Is This??

Today we speak truth to power, and amplify voices silenced for far too long.

Description:
Welcome to World History! In this course, we will examine the relationship between power and people, slave and slave master, tragedy and triumph, and our lives and our land. Throughout this course you will develop your understanding of the world’s cultural, social, economic, and physical geography and participate in a dynamic dialogue about the past, present, and future of our complex reality. We will use a variety of sources for our class material including videos, music, primary sources, textbook excerpts, magazine and journal articles, book chapters, and on-line sources. As such, this syllabus must be signed by a parent or guardian and you as a written multi-media authorization for what this class requires.

Grow. Create. Rebel. Learn. Love. Dream.

World History will explore the following essential questions:
How do we become better human beings?
What does it mean to be part of a global community?
How do we end suffering?
