Webinar: Electioneering: How Elections throughout American History have been Shaped by Rhetoric, Values, and the Media
Thursday, October 13, 2016
7:00pm ET / 4:00pm PT

During an election year, Americans are bombarded by various messages and images from candidates. In this webinar, participants will learn a new framework for interpreting political media through the lens of shared American values and the inherent tensions that exist between them. Participants will emerge equipped with a method for guiding students to understand political rhetoric from the election of 1800 to the modern day.
