Debate and Civic Engagement

Get Involved!

History isn’t just about the past—it’s about action! Debating historical issues helps you practice respectful disagreement and find solutions to today’s challenges.

Civic Skills

  • Presenting evidence-based arguments.
  • Listening and responding thoughtfully.

Making a Difference

Civic engagement, from voting to volunteering, shapes the future just as much as the past.

Examples

  • Participating in a mock debate about the Bill of Rights

  • Volunteering for a local history project or election
