Remix America

As Producer of remixamerica.org I try to get kids, students, and young people alike involved in history through modern media techniques and tools. Remix America is about mixing up the past with the present to find the relevance of American history and political news. Remix America is an all free site dedicated to an entertaining educational experience. On the site there are simple to use editing tools that allow users to create their own videos with footage already in our library. Best of all it is all completely FREE, it just takes less than a minute to sign up and you are done! So take a look at the site and let me know what you think.

New How-To Video!

Calling all Remixers!

We just released a new How-To demo which gives you all of the important tips on how to use the Remix America editing software.



Students with more experience in editing can switch from the Easy Editor to the Advanced Editor. The layout of the Advanced Editor is a little more like iMovie and it has a couple exclusive features. For example, the Advanced Editor allows two layers of soundtrack, so you can insert a song AND do a voice over!

Remix Rap: Lupe Fiasco

Here’s a great mashup of history and cutting-edge culture: At a recent Voices of a People’s History event, hip-hop artist Lupe Fiasco gave life to two very different but powerful pieces of the American story. First Lupe read an excerpt from an anti-war leaflet written during the Vietnam conflict by two civil rights activists. Then, he stirred up the crowd with the chorus of Public Enemy’s 1989 hit “Fight the Power.” Watch the video below, and read on to learn more about the pieces that Lupe perf… Continue

Kennedy, Jr. and the moon landing, has now left us. Walter Cronkite, "the most trusted man in America," after whom the term anchor was coined, died in his New York home on Friday. For those who grew up in the 20th century, Cronkite was an constant narrator in living rooms, store windows and kitchen counters. From blue-lit television screens across… Continue

Launch! Forty Years of Space Exploration

Forty years ago yesterday, Apollo 11, the spacecraft that would put the first man on the moon, took off from Cape Kennedy, Florida. On Wednesday, just the day before the anniversary of this historic launch, another space shuttle, the Endeavour, broke through earth's atmosphere, this time to further construction of the International Space Station.

America's exploration of the interplanetary unknown really began in 1957, the year that the Soviet Union launched the first artificial satellite to or… Continue
