Introducing Untextbooked where teen changemakers interview famous historians in a quest to answer questions about the world of today and of the past. The episode I am sharing today is an interview with the writer, political commentator, national security analyst and a senior advisor to former US President Barack Obama, Ben Rhodes. The interview is about the state of Global Democracy and is a fascinating conversation. I hope you enjoy this special treat. And I’ll see you next time!

Reflection Questions

  1. What comparable fake news do we still have in our society? Can you think of any examples of made up health issues?
  2. Consider that women could not vote in many parts of the world. Explain why women riding bicycles could be a threat to a patriarchal society.
  3. Visit the Trove website and research an aspect related to this episode; bloomers, bicycle face, Mrs Grundy, fashion, enfranchisement. (Be sure to select t he decade 1890-1899.) Find 3 quotes that demonstrate the attitudes and values toward women at this time.
  4. Find the cartoon in the Library of Congress, “The bicycle - the great dress reformer of the nineteenth century.” How reliable and useful is this source in depicting fashion from this era?
  5. Find the cartoon in the Library of Congress, “The bicycle - the great dress reformer of the nineteenth century.” What is the perspective of the artist who drew the cartoon?
  6. What is the implicit meaning behind the statement, “the bicycle hand is a thing of ugliness and a horror for ever"?

If you do a Google image search of Lakshmibai you will see a fierce Indian woman dressed in a man’s uniform, with her son strapped to her back, holding a sword and leading a charge against British soldiers. This was Lakshmibai, Queen of Jhansi.

Reflection Questions

  1. What is the difference between the words mutiny and rebellion?
  2. Why would the British textbooks refer to it as the Indian Mutiny and Indian perspectives the Sepoy Rebellion or the First War of Independence?
  3. Why do you think that Lakshmibai is celebrated in Indian culture, but barely mentioned in the modern Western History books about the Sepoy Rebellion?
  4. Why would early Western novels depict her as a seductress and jezebel?
  5. Why do you think paintings depict her son as an infant?
  6. How useful are songs in telling stories of the past?
  7. From whose perspective is the song written?
  8. How might you check the reliability of a song?

It is not often that you can say this about a teenage peasant girl from almost 600 years ago, but there is so much scholarship about her, the google search results go on for days, there are literally hundreds of books and thousands of scholarly articles written about her. But that is the life of Joan of Arc.
