All presentations are Saturday mornings. Zoom links will be sent during the week before each presentation.
The UC Berkeley History Social Science Project is proud to invite you to join us in virtual conversation with leading scholars in their fields. The series is a part of our effort to reframe Modern World History by globalizing the investigation of the origins and consequences of the industrial revolution, colonialism, and the resulting climate crisis we face today, while highlighting alternate visions for a sustainable and more just future.
- 9:00-10:00 Scholar presentation with Q&A
- 10:00-11:00 Optional breakout discussions with other world history teachers to reflect on the presentations and how the concepts and resources can support your curriculum.
