In today’s global climate, the urgency of sustaining democratic societies that are pluralistic, open, and resilient to violence is more pressing than ever. Facing History’s in-depth case study examines the fragility of democracy in Weimar Germany, the ensuing Holocaust, and the legacies of this history. Studying the Holocaust and Human Behavior case study allows students to wrestle with profound moral questions raised by this history while fostering their skills in ethical and moral reasoning, critical analysis, empathy, and civic engagement—all of which are critical habits of mind for sustaining democracy.

Who should take the course? Chicago Public Schools high school World Studies teachers.

Sub bucket number will be provided. Breakfast and lunch will be provided, vegetarian options will be included.
Speakers: Alayna Washington Michelle Paul; Sched Cap 65
