We discussed the poem "They Abyss...," explored video and info on Jesse Owens as a case study of how complex is our story of America during WWII with regard to social issues (see slideshow), and then we explored the topic of the internment of Japanese-Americans via 2 video clips and a bit more info from Mrs. Cluver (see videos and then also a reliable classmate). Finally, the Global Issues Unit-Closure Work Page was distributed and time given to begin the work -- finish for homework.
