We are going to explore what it means to find political opinions for ourselves. The lesson will cover current events in a sense, but it will be a class based on engagement. We will cover basic functions of government systems, and then explore where we fit into that process. From there, we will dissect different biases in the news, and begin to discover where we stand as individuals in this complex and polarizing political system.
