In the book, Discovering the Global Past, Merry Wiesner describes the Crusades from both the Muslim and Catholic perspective.

In this paper, I will argue how both the Catholic’s and Muslims’ had an inaccurate and partisan view of each other, which led to the creation of “othering”. I will do this by briefly showing the biases, as narrated by Malcolm Barber.

However, the CPI ended up creating propaganda for the government to distort the views of the American people and worked to destroy and discredit…
“There is growing acceptance all over the world that the quality of the teacher is the most important determinant of how much students learn.
