Special Project: Unit 5 Documentary

Hi All,

A cool way to get credit for a special project is through watching documentaries that you can access online. The following is a PBS video that aligns with material covered in Unit 5.

God in America 3: A Nation Reborn

Have you ever thought about the moral implications of the Civil War and how it changed our national character? The Frontline PBS series God In America is a six part series that tells the religious story of America and the role of God in our national character. The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 represented a pivotal battle in the moral and religious debate over slavery that had at that point been going on for decades in America. God in America 3: A Nation Reborn focuses on the moral and spiritual aspects of the Slavery controversy and the Civil War. This episode is part three of a six-part series telling America’s “religious story” spanning from the Colonial times to the present. It is an excellent film that I promise you will not regret watching.
