Description:
Christopher Lee remembers his 'world view' as a teenager in the 1950s. Is it the same as your world view?
A thought - provoking extract - use it as CPD with your colleagues if you want to discuss what history we should teach! - equally, it makes an excellent introduction for AS and A2 students on historians, interpretations, and our view of the world. Lots of the ideas and language might appear quite shocking to young people today, but that is part of the attraction of the piece. It should generate heated debate on Empire, history teaching and learning, schools, society, parents' views, and much more. Who says history cannot be provocative!
