War and Peace: Voices from Japan

In this 10-week online seminar, we will consider the experiences of the people of Okinawa, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, both in war time 1945 and in post-1945 peace time. The objective of this course is to carefully consider the experiences and voices of the people in Japan who were impacted by the events to be discussed.

Participants will complete required weekly readings, participate in weekly asynchronous online discussions, view archived one-hour webinars and 2 short films, and participate in several (3-4) synchronous one-hour webinars. A final classroom implementation plan is also required.
