JFK and LBJ
Below is a powerpoint to aid you in your Civil Rights Timeline. It will give you some information on Brown v. Board and some background on the types of segregation that were happening. Please add a few notes to your notebook on the concepts listed in the first slide. These things will help you understand how/why segregation is still present in many ways in the U.S. (specifically in schools and neighborhoods).
Segregation and Brown v. Board
You will have time to work on your paper later this week. However, you are at the stage where this would have been at home work. As such we recommend you spend about some time each day preparing your rough draft. Keep your mental health in mind and don't overdo it. Email us if timing becomes an issue for you.
**New Resource: If you are using an image in your paper, here is some guidance on how to cite and refer to your image.
On a page before your Works Cited page, you will have this:
Appendix A (center, no other formatting)
Picture (just copy paste your image, left aligned)
Fig. 1 (Centered underneath the image)
Then in your works cited page, include a normal MLA citation for the image. In text, you can reference the picture by referring to Figure one “In an ad released by…celebrities are shown… (see fig. 1)”
Below is a great resource for how to properly cite images and gives an example. It shows how to do it using the image in text, but the idea is the same. You will just put your image in an appendix instead of in text.
Due dates:
4/24: Rough Draft Due (Revision 2/3)
