A question for those a decade or two younger than me: When I was in school history stopped with the end of the Vietnam conflict. Everything after the fall of Saigon was still "current events." What I would like to know is what you learned in your history classes about the US involvement in the Middle East, and The September 11th attacks.
I know the history of these event as I live through them, and read the first draft of history in the news. I guess I wonder what the second draft looks like.
@antares basically Obama and newer is generally current, everything else is history-ish.
@antares oh and also, while Gov is not History, Citizens United is old enough to be covered in AP Government.
@antares a good resource would be to check out AP curriculum, for example https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/sites/default/files/2019-05/ap-us-history-course-and-exam-description.pdf
and https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/ap-world-history-modern-course-and-exam-description.pdf
