For over 150 years this story remained undiscovered. “The Story of Pelagie” app was created to bring a face to the many brave African American women who remain faceless in the history books, and whose lives made a real difference in America. The app provides teachers with a tangible tool so users can move chronologically through the story, jump to a certain subject, or scroll through the timeline to a particular period. Here are just a few ways the app can engage and enliven history, making history relevant to students’ lives today: •Define the word “freedom” then and now•Analyze a court case•Identify negative stereotypes and how to dispel them•Study an important period in American history•Listen to Pelagie’s present day descendants, both black and whiteOnce downloaded the app requires a short initial network connection (cellular or Wi-Fi) for content download. From that moment on, the app works 100% offline.The house where Pelagie and her family lived still stands today. Located in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri, a town with one of the largest collections of French colonial architecture, the Bauvais-Amoureux House was built in 1792 and is a present-day museum open to the public.
