4. Quest (ions) What does the past have to do with you? Why should you know about the leaders of a movement you were not part of? In order to answer these questions, first you and your group will need to answer the following ones with the aid of the internet: –Who were the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement? –What is important to remember about them? –What events took place in their lives that impact our current life?

5. Process We will begin by dividing the class into 4 groups, where each group will have a specific leader to investigate. –Investigator #1Investigator #1 –Investigator #2Investigator #2 –Investigator #3Investigator #3 –Investigator #4Investigator #4 Each group will make use of the internet to gather background information on the leader they’ve been assigned.
