Team-taught by a historian and two master teachers (Andrew Torget, the University of North Texas; Jay Ferguson, Round Rock ISD; and Chassidy Olainu-Alade, Fort Bend ISD), this webinar focused on the central problem that affected most Texans during the post-Civil War era: the relentless decline of cotton prices between the 1870s to the 1890s. This webinar was part of "Texas History: Cotton, Cattle and Railroads," an online professional development webinar series sponsored by Humanities Texas.
