@LIScluster One of the coolest ways to think about history is through the lens of political cartoons from the time. The National Freedom of Information Coalition has a cool collection of political cartoons from the 60s and 70s. https://t.co/X1sI7DWXsd

@LIScluster If you are interesting in history through the lens of photography, or just the history of photography, the PhotoSeed Blog is a great place to start. This resource would be a great way to engage young artists into history using visuals. https://t.co/sBQvbJ8RUV

@Stephen82006626 @LIScluster Thanks for sharing this resource! This is such a fun way to learn about history! I could definitely imagine how this would be a useful resource to share with friends, while also learning history. This would also be a good way to engage college-aged students in history.

@stephcascio @LIScluster This is a wonderful resource and very important for preserving historical information about the pandemic. There is an episode of Radiolab that presents similar audio that is very moving. https://t.co/QlOLRMbgXl

@stephcascio @LIScluster @LEEandLOW This is an amazing resource both for librarians and for teachers choosing texts to read with their class. As a teacher of high school students, I want to include diverse books and stories in my curriculum and I can use this checklist to help me achieve that goal.
