EXTRA CREDIT: Would you risk your life to help others to be free?

I know you are all tired from the Prom. . . and wondering what your weekend homework was, right?

It was to finish that small reading on Miltarism & Japan in WWII.

Here is our next extra credit opportunity. There is a film airing on Monday evening that is getting quite a lot of buzz. The film, is about the inter-racial "Freedom Rides" during the summer of 1961. I know that we are getting ahead of ourselves, BUT we will be studying civil rights very soon.

PBS is airing the film this MONDAY, MAY 16th at 9pm. For extra credit, please watch the film. While you are watching, you may want to jot down some notes. In the class this week, let me know that you watched the movie, and I will give you the actual assignment.

PBS has a fabulous companion website for the film--check it out!
