      [0705] Charlotte Crabtree papers, 1960-2004, Coll. 1785

      Location: Department of Special Collections, Manuscripts Division, Room A1713, Charles E. Young Research Library, University of California, Los Angeles, Box 951575, Los Angeles, CA 90095-1575

      Description: Charlotte Crabtree (1927-2006) was a Professor of Education at the University of California, Los Angeles. She produced history standards for kindergarten-12th grade education from 1986-1996, after which she coauthored a book about the intense political response from Lynne V. Cheney and others to the newly multicultural history standards. The National Center for History in the Schools was established at UC Los Angeles through Charlotte Crabtree's winning grant proposal. Under her direction in collaboration with UCLA Professor of History Gary Nash, the Center led the creation of the 1995 National Standards for World History and the National Standards for United States History. Beginning in 1994, the standards served as a lightning rod for debates of what have been called the American culture wars. Conservative politicians such as Lynne V. Cheney protested that the standards' multicultural inclusiveness smacked of historical revisionism, lacked proper patriotism, and excessively scrutinized shameful moments in American history. In an editorial for the Wall Street Journal, Cheney criticized the authors of the National Standards for United States History for saving "their unqualified admiration for people, places and events that are politically correct." Collection material includes conference records, meeting records, hearing records, field report feedback, community feedback, clippings of political responses in the media, textbooks, and academic publications. Series 1. National History Standards Project 1983-2004, contains textual and audio cassette records of National Council for History Standards meetings, feedback from focus groups, community groups, and others, political responses to the History Standards, copies of the 1995 World History and United States History Standards, and correspondence. Files on Pat Buchanan, Lynne V. Cheney, conservative political context, Bob Dole, John Fonte, Newt Gingrich, Ken Jost and Congressional Quarterly, Rush Limbaugh, and House Representative Lamar Smith. Series 3. California History—Social Science Framework 1986-1991, contains feedback on the Framework (also referred to as the "History—Social Studies Framework") from teachers, community groups, individuals, and special interest groups, including Creation Scientists and the Traditional Values Coalition. Includes a copy of the 1988 Model Curriculum for Human Rights and Genocide, and right to life group feedback on human rights and genocide.
