Q&A with The Nomadic Professor: Behind the Scenes on the American History series

With the recent roll-out of the complete American History series by The Nomadic Professor, we’ve asked the NP to share his experience of creating the courses over the last several years. Though currently hard at work on the upcoming World History series, the NP was kind enough to regale us with tales from the road and to explain what makes this American History course so special.
Whose “Last Frontier”?

How do we explore history without choosing sides? In tackling various angles of the contested narratives surrounding Alaska’s past, this course challenges simplistic, one-sided interpretations. The History of Alaska: America’s Last Frontier? dives into the complexity of indigenous land rights, colonization, and competing perspectives—encouraging learners to move beyond black-and-white storytelling. Discover a curriculum that takes the past seriously on its own terms. Learn more at Nomadic Professor.
