 CIVIL RIGHTS FACEBOOK What would the major and minor leaders of the Civil Rights Movement do if they were able to network with each other online? Let's find out! For the next few days, we will be constructing a Civil Rights Facebook (actually, two), in which each person or partnership plays the role of an individual from the Civil Rights Movement. We will create an identity for the individual, complete with background information, photos, and influences. We will interact with other members of the Facebook by identifying our friends, commenting on Facebook pages, responding to questions in a Facebook forum, responding to polls, and other fun actvities!
