History in movies is based upon a college course I was fortunate enough to enroll in. The course was a series of movies that had ties to a particular era and/or event. My plan is to duplicate a portion of this course for FDE experiences. The five selections that I have made will be the following events and/or eras. A breakdown of events surrounding the movie will conclude the session among the students in attendance.
Native American Culture-The New World
WWI-War Horse
Holocaust-Jakob the Liar
Cold War Era-1st Man
Civil Rights in America-42
