• W2117437112 abstract "In this article I offer an approach I have developed through presenting contentious issues to students in Japan. For the listening classes in the Academic English Program, where I covered two important events of the American Civil Rights Movement in the autumn semester 2009-10, I will outline my goal for presenting some of the clashing value systems at the root of America's racial conflict. I discuss the nature of ideologies in particular, of the importance of distancing oneself from them, for bringing perspective and balance to important historical moments. Most importantly, students can learn a great deal about a culture by considering both sides of an ideological clash. Here I will offer an overview of the course materials I developed for the listening classes of the Academic English Program (Autumn 2009), entitled The World of Forrest Gump. My emphasis, though, will be on some of the ways I adjusted my own outlook and approach to teaching these materials, to better bring home the important lessons. Though I covered two important aspects of the American Civil Rights Movement— with the overview of Jazz and Rock and Roll music that preceded it—in only six classes of a thirty class semester, this was the most challenging for me personally in a course that touched on the Vietnam War, the Antiwar Movement, Watergate, and Peace Movements. To teach about one of the great social injustices of one's country is painful. Below, I will consider some of the aspects of ideologies that both aid and hinder the approach I have taken. I admit this is both a self-conscious and circular exercise at times, but I feel it offers some lessons for presenting emotionally charged topics to Japanese students. Though historical moments do have universal applications, students who are exposed to these powerful clashes for the first time in any depth require a balanced presentation of them. Perhaps oddly, the Italian philosopher Giambattista Vico (1668-1744), the renowned Italian philosopher, inspired me to believe it was possible to successfully venture further into more complex territory with regards to historical themes. Vico said, in referring to mathematics and history, We can only understand what we have created. Humanity understands mathematics because human beings created it (though Vico did not think mathematics led to true understanding). The little we know of the natural" @default.
