Abstract
This chapter describes the development and refinement of three undergraduate primary source instruction sessions exploring social justice topics at Champlain College, a small predominantly white private college located in Burlington, Vermont. In these sessions, students analyzed how local history, community memory-making, and the role institutions of higher education have played in both perpetuating and disrupting dominant cultural narratives. The coauthors discuss key sources featured in each session, lesson formats and classroom activities, pre- and post-session assignments, and instructor and student reflections.
