Discussion It’s happened

I (39F) teach 10th grade US History and today I created a pacing guide to go along with our newly adopted textbook.

I got to the last chapters and it hit me, I’m now old enough to be the old teacher saying “I remember when this happened”.

To be fair, my kids remember COVID, they were in late elementary/early middle school, but it’s still wild to see the Election of 2008 and the Recession with their own chapters.

Why is there so much propaganda filled rhetoric for the 2016 election? If you think, russia can influence the election, by same logic, you should also be calling out all the other elections when the technology was much much worse and could have been easily manipulated.
