I played a little April Fool's joke on you about a current events quiz at the beginning of class, but be forewarned, we haven't had one in a while, and you're overdue. We watched Episode 3 of Eyes on Prize today, called "Ain't Scared of Your Jails (1960-1961)". This episode focused on youth involvement in the civil rights movement, including lunch counter sit-ins and the freedom rides. Please remember that your Civil Rights Assignment is due on Friday, April 4th.
