About This Lesson
In this inquiry, students gain an informed, critical perspective on the United States Constitution as it stood at the close of the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Examining the ways that the document structures the U.S. government, its relationship to slavery and the extent to which it is made more democratic through the amendment process, students explore the compelling question: “Did the Constitution establish a just government?”
