Richmond Chapter 18: Change, Controversy, and Commemoration

The recent history of Kansas has been less controversial than its beginnings, but Kansas will never be boring. Kansas is a land of contrasts and for that reason there will always be controversy in Kansas. There is a lot in this last chapter to explore further. My students would be interested in theose athletes and other performers who have made a name for themselves. The natural disasters would also draw interest. I think I will use the change in Kansas in the last 50 years and have students speculate on its future.
