HIST101 S1 - U.S. History to 1877 FA26

HIST102 S1 - American History Since 1877 FA26

This course explores the American story from the aftermath of the Civil War to the present—a period of extraordinary change, conflict, progress, and contradiction. We’ll examine how Americans rebuilt a nation after slavery and civil war; struggled over race, gender, citizenship, and equality; transformed the country through industrialization, immigration, and technological change; endured economic depression and two world wars; fought over civil rights and America’s role in the world; and navigated the political and cultural upheavals that continue to shape our lives today. 

Along the way, we’ll look beyond presidents, wars, and elections to the experiences of ordinary people like you and I  and explore one of America’s most fundamental ideas: “freedom”—how its meaning and boundaries have changed over time, and who has and has not been included in its promise.
