Students rotate through a gallery of paired images and short texts on the Boston Tea Party, abolitionist resistance, women’s suffrage, the Civil Rights Movement, and a current protest. At each station, they sort the act as patriotic, criminal, or both on sticky notes and record one piece of evidence plus one question about perspective. The class closes with a brief whole-group debrief that surfaces disagreement and introduces the course debate.
