Academic Interests
While I have taught Civics, Economics, and World History at a variety of levels, I am most interested in material dealing with US History.  Within American History I am most fascinated by information dealing with the institution of slavery, the Jim Crow Era, and the Civil Rights Movement.  Most recently I have become involved with a variety of new resources regarding race relations for the new Minority Studies class at Jordan.
