Talk With History: Discover Your History Road Trip Hamilton got it wrong, Aaron Burr historian tells us the truth
🎙️
Shawn Curtis is a 24-year veteran Social Studies Teacher with a Master's in Education. He has been a teacher in Wyoming, New Jersey, Ohio, and Indiana and has taught a variety of subjects that have included Economics, Government, and yes our favorite...History!
Shawn has studied culture all over the world, from working in a Russian Orphanage, helping construct a school in Guatemala, to leading students to Greece, Italy, France, and this summer to Eastern Europe.
2 summers ago, they received a grant from the Eli Lilly Foundation to travel Route 66 for 2 weeks and record American culture in a pandemic world.
Shawn's TRUE historical passion is the stories of the underdog and those that history has wounded. His classroom is framed with pictures of figures like Jack Johnson, Josh Gibson, and Aaron Burr.
Shawn has been a card-carrying member of the Aaron Burr Association ever since he first discovered the history of Aaron Burr at the University of Wyoming in the 90s, and he has been working to clear Burr's name ever since.
