Freshman Homework club meets Tuesdays and Thursdays in room 218 from 2:15-3:00. There are late busses that leave Tuesdays and Thursdays at 4:00. Go there for extra help in any class. On Thursdays I will be there after school.
After wrapping up the Age of Exploration we will be comparing the Civil Rights movement in the US led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to the Indian independence movement led by Mahatma Gandhi. They were religious men, King a Christian and Gandhi a Hindu, both men utilized civil disobedience as a change agent. We will see how non violent dissent has become one of the most powerful forces in world history. MLK would say that "Christ taught me the message, Gandhi the method" in describing civil disobedience.
