Looking forward to starting Roman Civ tomorrow. It's the first class of the semester because of last week's snowstorm. #keanOcean #hist3120

@AbiPerk I am having trouble with the video I posted. Help! #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

@Muhjalil88 Great pictures! Glad you retweeted them. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Two more great movies I need to recommend- Angels in America and The Normal Heart. #history #aids #hist2404

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

I don't think students today understand what life was like in the 80's. Maybe a clip of "RENT"? #suggestions #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

One more thing- important to me. If we are talking about the 80's, how about the AIDS epidemic? Huge! #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Mixed emotions about the video clips. Spike Lee- yes! Cosby??? Yikes. #honesty #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Still, it's not easy to get everything into a 2 week course. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Only regret- we didn't get to touch on some really important events. WWI, Vietnam, Korea, Watergate, etc. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Two more assignments to go before the semester ends. It went really fast! #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

@RebeccaLynnn4 Also it is interesting to read the individual stories of these women and the impact they made on young students. #hist2304

[New York Times Books @nytimesbooks]

The author Alex Haley transformed American race relations and the understanding of black history for generations. https://t.co/yqpTpSTI8D

I loved reading about the "What Did You Do In The War, Grandma?" Project! 👵🏽 #hist2304

@pierclau1 You are so sweet! 😊 #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

@jesshelms2 @pierclau1 I was sick too. Double ear infection. Not a great time to be on camera. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Reading that novel helped me better understand the experiences of Paul Ohtaki in our reading. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Garden of Stones was a fictionalized account but also took place in the Manzanar prison camp. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

It reminded me of a novel I read about a year ago called Garden of Stones, by Sophie Littlefield. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

Just read first reading for tomorrow- Internment Oral History. #hist2304

[Reenie Castellanos @ReeWriteMe2]

@LiLrOssi25 At least once/ but it has to be 200 words or more.
