In the spring of 2022, the\u00a0American Historical Association<\/strong>, the\u00a0National Council for the Social Studies<\/strong>, the\u00a0John N. Gardner Institute for Excellence in Undergraduate Education<\/strong>, and\u00a0New American History<\/em><\/strong> hosted a series of listening sessions for K-12 educators and higher education faculty, an opportunity to listen to the concerns of educators concerned about the teaching of US history amidst political controversy. Teachers expressed a need to find inquiry-based learning resources and tools to foster reflective thinking using credible sources, without violating new state laws or local policies. In the spirit of supporting these colleagues, we offer the following resources. Topics were requested by educators in previous listening sessions.<\/p>\n
