In telling his life story, Rev. Aaron Johnson takes us to the front
lines of the fight for civil and human rights in our country over
the last fifty years. Whether being beaten and dragged from a dime
store lunch counter, standing blindfolded before a Ku Klux Klan
meeting, or praying arm-in-arm with a death-row inmate, Johnson
shows us how human hatred and fear smells, sounds and feels-and how
it feels to empower others with hope and trust.
Told with humility and humor, Johnson's story reminds us that one
individual-with focus and faith-can effect great change despite
repeated hurdles. Readers will come to know Aaron Johnson as a
friend and inspiring hero who suspects that God still has a few
projects waiting for him on his to-do list.
Traumagenic events-episodes that have caused or are likely to cause
trauma-color the experiences of K-12 students and the social
studies curriculum they encounter in U.S. schools. At the same time
that the global COVID-19 pandemic has heightened educators'
awareness of collective trauma, the racial reckoning of 2020 has
drawn important attention to historical and transgenerational
trauma. At a time when social studies educators can simply no
longer ignore "difficult" knowledge, instruction that acknowledges
trauma in social studies classrooms is essential. Through employing
relational pedagogies and foregrounding voices that are too often
silenced, the lessons in Hollywood or History? An Inquiry-Based
Strategy for Using Film to Acknowledge Trauma in Social Studies
engage students in examining the role of traumatic or traumagenic
events in social studies curriculum. The 20 Hollywood or History?
lessons are organized by themes such as political trauma and war
and genocide. Each lesson presents film clips, instructional
strategies, and primary and secondary sources targeted to the
identified K-12 grade levels. As a collection, they provide
ready-to-teach resources that are perfect for teachers who are
committed to acknowledging trauma in their social studies
instruction.
