History Teachers

The approximately 1,275 images in this collection have been selected from a wide range of sources, most of them dating from the period of slavery. This collection is envisioned as a tool and a resource that can be used by teachers, researchers, students, and the general public - in brief, anyone interested in the experiences of Africans who were enslaved and transported to the Americas and the lives of their descendants in the slave societies of the New World.

An interesting talk regarding Teachers as Historians - interaction between practitioners and academic historians with historical resources and digital access.

A wealth of Civil War wet-plate photographs from the Civil War era.

I highly recommend this site. Today in class we worked with the Nathaniel Bacon Case and on Monday will look at the Anthony Johnson case on slavery. I wish there were more options to integrate into my AP course.

Great free games and projects.

this is a great site, and is a great reminder for us thanks so much for sharing this~
