Thursday/Friday 29/30 May

Students finished watching A Time for Justice. Class discussed how there was evidence of Non-violence in the struggles depicted.

Next students worked in groups to identify violent resistance to the peaceful change that was sought by Civil Rights Activists. Students studied the deaths of 40 who were killed as a result of the Civil Rights movement.

Students created a chart of: Who was killed; their age and race; who killed them; why they were killed? After creating the chart students searched for and identified patterns.

Finally students wrote an inscription that could be part of a monument to those who died for Civil Rights.
