The Challenging History collaborative represents a wide diversity of St. Louis-area professionals. We hail from local universities, non-profits, national parks, museums, and civic organizations. Our common interest is helping correct the historical record as it relates to many of America’s marginalized communities, including African Americans, women, Native Americans, immigrants, and others. Using the powerful tool of place-based learning, these partners are helping students, teachers, and individuals broaden their understanding of our region’s past.
