Opportunity at a Glance: Since the nation’s founding, Americans have cast their children’s education as central to democracy’s preservation. Yet schools have often failed as great democratizers and, for better or worse, have helped to define what American democracy is and can be. Two teachers who specialize in the history of education will argue that it can be a deeply engaging way to grapple with our nation’s tortured entanglements of race, class, gender, and power–and explore practical ways to insert the history of education into broader surveys of U.S. history.
