Monday, 2 June

We took a break from studying the Civil Rights movement today in order to understand more about D-day, June 4th, 1944.

Mr. Zartler lectured and the class viewed and discussed two videos, one a news real propoganda piece, the other a segment of a documentary that has interviewed soliders from both sides of Omaha beach.

Next class we will return to studying the Civil Rights movement paying particular attention to the contributions of young people.
