This curriculum is meant to supplement American History courses taught in secular school. It focuses on Jewish and American identity, and the tensions and similarities between the two.  It does so by focusing on social justice issues, and how students might intersect their identities to be involved in the public sphere.  Units include historical information, a look at modern issues, and a service-learning opportunity.

This curriculum guide was created by Emily Walsh Fox, 2009 graduate of the HUC-JIR School of Education. It was intended for high schoolers in a day school or religious school setting.
