Critical Digital Pedagogy and Latin American History

This poster video introduces viewers to two critical pedagogical history projects -- Empire's Progeny: Race and Imperialism in the Americas and States of Belonging: Citizenship, Identity, and Globalization in Modern Latin America. These projects engage students in source-based, student-centered collaborative investigations into the structures of difference and identity in Latin America since Columbus. More on these at www.empiresprogeny.org and www.statesofbelonging.org.
