Eye+Openers

==As the years of slavery and oppression continued, many felt the passing of the 13th and 14th Amendments were enough. There were those who knew, however, that "separate but equal" would never truly be equal. On this page, click on the photograph of one who helped "open the eyes" of America by pushing for true equality for all. After reading the bios, use sticky note taking to list three atttibutes of those who opened our eyes.==



[|Sojourner Truth] [|Frederick Douglass] [|Dred Scott] [|Rosa Parks] [|Martin Luther King, Jr.]

1. What common attitributes do all of these famous eye-openers possess? 2. The lives of these people spanned well more than a century, do you think any of them lived to see an America where all possess equality? 3. The Civil Rights Movement lasted well beyond the life-times of all these people, write down all that you know about the movement and then move to the next page for more eye-openers.
