We should be looking at the world, not just the United States

Interesting perspective from Stephen Armstrong, who reflects on what students have been learning in American classrooms. A lot of teachers have downplayed teaching world affairs, teaching world history. Because so much of their energy has been to focus on national stuff. It is time to wake up! It is time to look at how to teach these difficult topics. Like the issue of atomic weapons, and that weapons exist that could destroy the world. Video from “The Brainwaves Video Anthology
