Exploring the Origins of 9/11
Lifelong Learning | Available (Membership Required)
The teacher will explain the origins of the tragic events of 9/11 by examining and simplifying the complex political, religious, and social factors of the Middle East during the 20th century. In this way, the class will trace the historic timeline rooted at the end of World War I, through eight decades until that inauspicious September morning.
