Story of Emmett Till (Black History: Civil Rights, Segregation, Jim Crow)

Created by
Miss B's Shop
This prezi tells the story of Emmett Till, a young black boy who was viciously murdered in the Jim Crow south and whose confessed murderers were freed by an all-white jury. I use it as part of my introduction to To Kill a Mockingbird, but it would be great for any novel that deals with social justice, a history class, or a discussion of what sorts of events inspired the Civil Rights Movement (Rosa Parks cited Emmett Till as a reason that she refused to give up her seat on the bus). Finally, ther

Created by
William Tarvin
This handout focuses on what your students, especially those college-bound or in college, need to know about Pope’s “The Rape of the Lock.” Its fill-in-the-blanks format, largely text-based, has your students analyze the historical background of the poem, its themes, structure, mock-epic genre, and stylistic features.
