Looking Ahead

Rather than post my notes on Chapter 8 of Sitkoff, I'd prefer to present my remarks in class. I will do that next Thursday (3/19). We'll go ahead with the video presentations on King's assassination on Tuesday (3/17). And don't forget that Writing Assignment #2 is due next Thursday as well, and we will need to have three volunteers to present their essays to the class (which we'll I'll ask for on Tuesday).

We will begin to discuss selections from "A Testament of Hope" during the following week and resume our textual commentaries. The first set of selections I'd like you to read are: the Editor's Introduction, #53, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. There is no theme as such in this first group of selections; they mainly concern the Montgomery bus boycott and writings from the late '50s. That will be the reading assignment for both Tuesday (3/24) and Thursday (3/26). The textual commentators will be: Tuesday (3/24) -- Kristen, Lewis, Tramaine. Thursday (3/26) -- Frank, Jessica H., Jeremy.

That's all for now. See you next week.
