A Multifaceted American Heritage: Colonization, Conflict, and Compromise (1607–1781)

What were the rights, roles, responsibilities, influence, and agency of the different populations living in colonial Virginia? How did social levels, gender, and ethnicity impact every aspect of society? Participants in this onsite program explored daily life in the territories of the American colonies from the period of British colonization to the American Revolution. During this course, teachers were immersed in hands-on activities, primary sources, and teaching strategies that highlight the stories of the diverse peoples living in Virginia during this time period.
