This MAster class will examine the ways in which slavery has been mythologized in American intellectual and popular culture, enabling participants both to reflect on their own understandings and deconstruct some of the myths about slavery that have been pervasive throughout history. This class also aims to demystify the topic of Critical Race Theory by giving an overview of the subject and analysis of the news coverage from the summer of 2021, as well as addressing common misunderstandings.
Our evening will conclude with a discussion of how the History Department has integrated conversations about race into the curriculum here at Marin Academy. RSVP here.
