I am teaching a 12th grade British Literature class and I want to start the entire class by exploring some of Britian influences on American culture. I am looking for answers that fall under topics like: fashion, music, art, politics, medicine, media, education, family, social values, etc… Anything along these lines would be helpful. I want to prove/show the students WHY it is important to study British Literature. Thanks!
