KCC

Reminder -- Chapter 17 is due next Tuesday (~1 week away).  We went through the pictures on the bulletin board to get a sense of the themes represented there (helpful for EQ page); please take a close look at the pictures sometime in the next few days.  Also, read the excerpt of the poem that's woven through those 2 bulletin boards.  (It's from Maya Angelou's "On The Pulse of Morning" -- the same poem from which last unit's excerpt came regarding slavery "Bought.  Sold.  Stolen.  Arriving on a nightmare, praying for a dream.")  We sampled some Haitian music and freshly fried and seasoned plantains as connection to Hilda's mystery bag bananas and prelude to tomorrow's presentation on a contemporary immigration story from Haiti.  Do the practice C&E on Crash Course U.S. History #25.
