As I reflect on the first Module, I feel ashamed of not knowing some of the history such as gasoline baths and the history of Japanese incarceration. I can’t help but to think this wasn’t that long ago in history. I agree with what most have commented on how racism and discrimination in America gets swept under the rug. The time I spent watching this module should be the introduction in all history classes going forward. Maybe we can advocate for change in how educators discuss history in the classrooms? These videos are a great tool to help everyone understand the historical roots racism has in our country.
