Curated Course Material for Single Class Periods!
The documents in this collection introduce students to the Soweto Uprising and the viewpoints of the white government and the African opposition. Readers will enter into the debates over race relations, equality of opportunity, and the consequences of imperialism that framed the history of apartheid-era South Africa.
Students will engage with a wide range of primary sources, guided in their analyses by a learning objective, central question, historical background, source headnotes, source questions, project questions and suggestions for further research. Through their work with these documents, they will gain a more complete understanding of the present in an historically-based context, an enhanced ability to read, interpret, assess, and contextualize primary sources, and practice explaining historical change over time.
