Introduction

The Legacies of War (“Legacies”) Curriculum is an educational unit designed to introduce students to the Secret War of Laos and the effects of clandestine wartime bombardment upon contemporary life there. The curriculum is designed to function as a five-lesson block unit with each lesson-block filling roughly an hour-long time period. The idea here is for the unit to function as a weeklong unit within the broader context of a high school Social Studies/US History curriculum.
