Pbs: Cet: Africans in America: Teacher's Guide

Go directly to the teacher's guide developed to supplement the PBS documentary "Africans in America," which chronicles the history of slavery in the United States. Find lessons, many of which provide links to related primary sources, that explore the program and its companion Web content. Key concepts--the nature of citizenship and freedom, the economics of slavery, leaders of slave resistance, and American identity--are all explored. Although access to the video for the series is recommended, many useful resources are freely available on the website. Click on introduction for background information.
