This is a yearlong course for juniors that investigates the history of the United States and its people. We start with a brief look at the indigenous people of North America and we will try to get through the terrorist attacks of 9/11. Since this is a lot of history to get through in a short amount of time, we will not be able to go into depth on many topics. Instead we will focus on why things happened and the lessons we can take from them for today and the future.
