1 - Read SNCC Statement of Purpose (page 54) and complete a primary source analysis. For connections be sure to consider connections to the time period, other texts, and your web of Civil Rights Movement causes.
2 - Read King's Letter From Birmingham (page 72 -75) and complete a primary source analysis. For connections be sure to consider connections to the time period, other texts, and your web of Civil Rights Movement causes.
3 - Construct a tentative claim for your essay. Your claim should include three arguments. If you choose to create a claim that diverges a bit from the essential question you must make sure you develop a coherent claim that relates to the overall theme of the unit. It is not acceptable to come in and say "I didn't do it because I don't know what I want to talk about." You have known about this essay for over a month and your notes should reflect the evolution of your thinking along the way. If you feel you need to create several different claims and pick from them, that's okay.
Remember you are considering WWII, Cold War, Supreme Court, advancements in technology, youth/students.
