New CAR-2-06. This class was awesome if totally not following the course description (something that half the class was bugged by, half the class kinda apathetic about.) Basically, we looked at different movements in American history and connected them, looking at the tactics they used... also killed a lot of trees to read dissenting literature and such. Very useful for anyone interested in movements/American history.

Dissent rocked! But be warned: in our year, the first year, it was American-based. The description on the CTY website has been changed to show this. Overall, though, it was a beyond spiffy history course, and the people were amazing.


Teacher: Cory
Ta: Pat
Both of the Dissent teachers were Uber cool, and although Pat was called the TA from Purgatory, he must have been from a really spiffy side of purgatory.

Much of this course was spent watching movies, including:

  • Birth of a Nation
  • Modern Times
  • Control Room
  • The Weather Underground
  • Iron Jawed Angels
  • An Inconveinent Truth
