2012 Teachers and Scholars Seminar
Join up to 25 teachers in this 2012 Teachers and Scholars Conference as we learn about the legislative process leading to emancipation. Participants will come away from this weekend seminar familiar with an array of primary sources focused on the theme Congress and Emancipation, and the skills to develop engaging content driven learning experiences centered on the legislative process and emancipation.  Gain a greater understanding of our legislative process here in the United States, the early Civil Rights Movement which led to the thirteenth amendment and a greater understanding of the conflict between pro slavery and anti-slavery proponents which resulted in the Civil War.
