The best way to understand the past is to pretend to go there. Using a role-playing game, students recreate a crucial moment in the history of the 1960s civil rights movement: Freedom Summer. Students playing historical roles negotiate, deliberate, debate, and lead real-life scenarios based on the interracial movement to end white supremacy in Mississippi. Can Blacks and whites work together for change? Is non-violence possible? What compromises should be made to demand democracy? In this course, you will collectively seek answers to these questions, while learning about the history of this important social movement.

Why has Christmas persistently produced strange, passionate conflicts from Colonial America to the present? Emphasizing the interaction of religion, capitalism, social diversity, and politics, this course focuses on the evolving observance of Christmas in material culture (presents, trees, and lights), media (literature, popular music, and film), and public space (rowdyism, parades, and nativity scenes).
Class meetings will include nine video lectures. Assigned primary sources include: Puritan sermons and laws, 19th-21st-century newspaper & magazine articles, diaries, photographs, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, film clips, & a feature film of students’ choice.

Immediately after the First World War, most European countries were democracies; twenty years later, on the eve of the Second World War, a majority of European governments were authoritarian, and European democracy seemed almost extinct. This course will examine the twenty year period in Europe between the First and Second World Wars and will explore the ideological battles that enabled the rise of Nazism and Stalinism, led to the start of the Second World War, and nearly doomed democracy.
