Robert Eager has developed the innovative Own Your History® curriculum (OYH) which the Los Angeles Unified School District and San Bernardino City Unified School District have accepted as authorized history/social studies and ethnic studies curriculum and posted on their proprietary teacher websites. Inspired by the “stumbling stones” in Berlin, Germany, OYH focuses on American “hard history.”
