Oregon Trail Interpretive Center, Baker City, Oregon (2018)
Visiting Eastern Oregon should include a stop at the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center just outside of Baker City Oregon along Interstate 84. The Interpretive Center sits on top of Flagstaff Hill overlooking the Oregon Trail. You can still walk along ruts of the wagons, that crossed the Oregon Trail, which are still visible in this area.

Oregon History 101 - Two Hundred Years of Changes to Native Peoples of Western Oregon
Presented by David Lewis, Ph.D. Cultural Resources Director, Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde
Recorded at McMenamins Kennedy School, Portland, Oregon
Monday, September 8, 2014
Native societies in Oregon have seen monumental changes in the last two hundred years. Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Oregon's tribes and bands have witnessed great losses of land to federal government allotment programs; death from European diseases; and the loss of culture and language from assimilation programs at Indian boarding schools. Through all these changes, Native cultures in Oregon have adapted, and continue to thrive and adapt.
David Lewis, Ph.D., Head of the Cultural Resources Department for the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community, will describe what life was like for western Oregon tribes, and examine the changes that resulted from the resettlement of Native lands.
Oregon History 101 is a nine-month public history program series designed to give Oregonians a basic understanding of the state’s significant people, places, and events. Each month, historians will present a chapter of Oregon history, beginning with the earliest peoples and ending with the turn of the twenty-first century. The series will emphasize Oregon’s connection to historical themes in American history, including Native history, early exploration, western expansion, race, gender, and social justice, and the post-industrial economy. Series Editors Dr. Carl Abbott and Dr. William Lang have designed the series and invited many of the state’s most distinguished senior scholars to speak. Each presentation will feature images from the Oregon Historical Society archives and will be filmed and made available on the World Wide Web, along with research guides and other digitized material from The Oregon Encyclopedia and the Oregon History Project.

Oregon History 101 - How the Donation Land Act Created the State of Oregon & Influenced History
“How the Donation Land Act Created the State of Oregon and Influenced its History.”
Presented by David Johnson, Professor of History, Portland State University
Recorded at McMenamins Kennedy School, Portland, Oregon
Monday, November 3, 2014
The Oregon Donation Land Law, passed by Congress in 1850, divided land into square plots that are still visible on the western Oregon landscape. The law allowed for white males and married women to claim 320 acres of free land, which helped spur the westward resettlement of European Americans to the Oregon territory and had lasting impact on the economic, political, and cultural development of the state. Professor Johnson will discuss how the Donation Land Act of 1850 initiated a land rush to Oregon, hastened the European American conquest of the territory, and—by virtue of the sheer size of the Donation Land claimant population—influenced almost every aspect of the region’s subsequent transformation into a U.S. territory and state.
David A. Johnson is a professor of history at Portland State University. His field of expertise is United States social and intellectual history. Johnson is the managing editor of the Pacific Historical Review.

Oregon History 101—“Thinking About Oregon”
Presented by Dr. Richard Etulain and Dr. Jane Hunter. Unfortunately, for copyright considerations, the slides from this presentation are not available.
Recorded on May 4, 2015
McMenamins Kennedy School, Portland, Oregon
After a year of Oregon history, we end with “Thinking About Oregon” two perspectives on the Oregon story in national context. What’s unique about this state, and how has its Northwest perspective influenced the rest of the nation? Richard Etulain, historian of the West and emeritus professor of history at the University of New Mexico, reflects on four Oregonians who brought new ideas and insights to the nation. Jane Hunter, professor of history at Lewis & Clark, takes a different perspective on Oregon history, reflecting on the ways that national stories played out here. She’ll consider the state’s participation in the racial history of World War II, introducing new work on Japanese internment, an African-American newspaperman, and a recent competition for Portland’s east side.

Vlog 037: Oregon City, OR
March 2017
Visiting Oregon City, Oregon on a very rainy day. Started the day by grabbing breakfast at Yvonne's Restaurant. Then strolled through the downtown area and to the Oregon City Municipal Elevator, the only municipal elevator in the United States. We tried to go through the historic McLoughlin House Museum, but were unable to due to school field trips. We finished up our day in Oregon City at the End of the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center.

Baker Heritage Museum, Baker City, Oregon (2018)
The Baker Heritage Museum is located in Baker City, Oregon. This Museum is well laid out with lots of very interesting and informative displays that cover the history of the region. There is a massive rock collection. As well as a very extensive collection of memorabilia for the 'Paint Your Wagon' movie. This was the only movie that I have seen that has Clint Eastwood singing in it.

Like most of the videos on Mr. Raymond’s Social Studies Academy’s lessons, this video ends with a review “quiz.” Remember that the PowerPoint in this video as well as a variety of lesson plans, worksheets, smartboard files and activities, are available at Teachers Pay Teachers.
As a social studies teacher, I have often looked for good YouTube video clips to show my students. I hope these videos will serve as a supplement to lessons for civics teachers, US history teachers, US government teachers and their students. I have also thought that these videos could help those who are going to take the naturalization test to become US Citizens.
