Perspectives on the Civil War

During the fall 2016 semester, the social studies methods students participated in a learning experience (http://chssp.ucdavis.edu/programs/historyblueprint/the-civil-war) that allowed for them to learn about the diversity in perspectives as to whether the Civil War was necessary and desirable. Below are two links to VoiceThreads, which capture are some of the perspectives of individual Americans. These perspectives highlight the complexity of public opinion and allows for the exploration of how perspectives impact actions, beliefs, and history.
