We start in Rome in late antiquity and move through time and place, covering topics including the Aztecs, the English revolution, enslavement, the Russian revolutions, Facism, and anti-apartheid movement. Our resources are organized chronologically, with a separate section more focused on the study of history itself. It corresponds to the curricula as closely as possible and includes not only written blog posts but also a range of audio, video, and material for places like History Extra, History Today, and the Historical Association. We hope this resource becomes a place that teachers can come for information on the historical periods they are teaching, while including resources to introduce different topics like disability history, LGBTQIA history, gender history, and history from below.
