    Less travel and more contemporary Iran than Rick Steves, the only copy I could find of this on Youtube has a distracting fake "theater" around the screen. I plan to show it nevertheless.

    A History Day project which earned Honorable Mention at the state level in Massachusetts, this 10-minute documentary does a nice job of summarizing the effects of "glasnost" and "perestroika" as well as tracing nationalism and ethnic conflict and how all these things led to the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

    "Frozen" goes global! The song "Let It Go" is sung in numerous languages (none in African, though, I noticed). You see the singers with a little window showing the scene in the movie.

    Frontline's "Putin's Way" is about 55 minutes long and discusses the criminal charges against Putin, how he ruthlessly got and keeps his power, and shows the crisis in Ukraine and Putin's rejection by Western leaders. Use the closed captioning, or kids will not be able to follow interviews because of the Russian accents.

    Clocking in at 13:43, John Green explains the social hierarchy (i.e. social structure/race) in Latin America as well as revolutions in Brazil, Mexico, and Venezuela. I would just use from minute 8 through the end because it's less confusing and focuses on less material.
