Jim Crow and Proposals for Fighting Back

Today we'll begin by hearing some of what you discovered about the Jim Crow era in your web activity that you completed for today.
Next, each group will be assigned one proposal (Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Dubois, Marcus Garvey) to read and be able to identify the following (you should keep track of this information in your notebooks):

• A key quote and explanation of that quotation.
• A list of benefits to that plan- in other words, why might it be successful?

When finished, class will jigsaw in order to share all of the proposals. Everyone is responsible to know and understand what each author said. You should keep track of these in your notebooks.

Then, as a group, you'll look at a fourth proposal that outlines the principles of the NAACP.

Finally, each person individually will fill out this exit slip: Jim Crow Responses Exit Slip
