In history when reading about an important event, most likely the story is one sided; because those who are victorious get to tell the tale. Throughout many young people's experiences, when learning about other cultures in school the specific section is either limited and just goes over how they…

After having taken History 2700, I’d like to say that I will be a much more informed and better American citizen because of it. I have always loved history and so many of the things in this course were not too shocking for me, that being said, I still feel as if I learned several things. I enjoyed that this class focused less on dates and names and more on the significance, meaning, and later results of the historical events discussed. One area of history I knew very little about was the vast…

of Arizona had such a problem with the Latin Studies Program. In high school, I took both AP US History and AP European History. In both of these courses, we learned about radical thinkers and doers and people who decided to revolt against the status quo. Both of these courses are fine for students to learn, it’s fine for us to learn about Napoleon and the American Revolution, so what makes the history of Latin American different? Is it because we live in such an Eurocentric America, that it’s…

The times of European supremacy in the world in the sense of imperialism and the sort has come to past, but some ideologies still remain from these periods. Some standards set by Europeans in those earlier periods of human civilization still remain and are hurting us on a global scale today. Many of the art outside of Europe were referred to as “primitive art” instead of just simply art. The understanding here is that many of the objects that we might refer to today as art objects that were…
