MakingHistory

Making History is the top-level thing I do, as a historian, teacher, and writer. I create content, based on either original primary research or to present the findings of other historians to my students. This channel will cover several topics I am researching or teaching, and reflections on the ways that history helps us understand our current world. danallosso.substack.com

The Great War (again)

MakingHistory ·

2024/10/15

This is my World War I content for my World History course rather than the US History perspective I posted a week or so ago. Several of the points I make are the same (since the US was a significant participant in the war), but there’s a bit more attention to the rest of the world, I think. This is a public episode.

The Roaring 20s

2024/10/10

This is the sixth chapter or week of my US History 2 course. From here on, we’ll be covering more or less a decade per week. The twenties, I think, doesn’t get the attention it deserves.

Zinn and Las Casas

MakingHistory ·

2024/09/20

As I've been sharing the Columbian Exchange with students in my Modern World History course this fall, one thing that has come up again in student questions and responses to the text, lectures, and primary sources is the vehemence of Bartolomeo de Las Casas in accusing the Spanish in the Caribbean of inhumanity. Las Casas had participated in the "pacification" of Cuba and in recognition of his contribution he received an encomienda, or a grant of territory and native workers. In Spain during the

This is me reading the first half of the fourth chapter of my book, titled, “Migration”. it demonstrates, I think, that the “Yankee West” was very tightly connected by ties of family and friend networks well into the nineteenth century. This is a revision of the declensionist myth of New England as well as Turner’s Frontier Thesis. This is a public episode.

2024/08/23

This is an introductory “chapter” of my Modern World History course and open textbook. Since I typically find that students in my course haven’t taken the previous course in the sequence, I begin with a bit of review of the main points that help to “set the scene” for the beginning of the narrative we’ll be covering in the course. This talk does not include PowerPoint slides or images, but you can find the images and text in the Introduction part of the textbook and read along or listen as you read
