Resistance to Reconstruction: Sharecropping, KKK, Jim Crow Laws
I found that students lacked a true understanding of the institutionalized racism and social/political/economic challenges African Americans faced in the 100 years between the end of slavery and the first breakthroughs of the Civil Rights Movement. To provide more context, I created this assignment explaining sharecropping, the KKK, Jim Crow Laws, Poll Taxes, Literacy Tests, and Grandfather Clauses. It is very informative and great for class discussion afterwards and linking to modern times.

Political Parties: Find out if your students are conservative or liberal!
Students can have very strong opinions on many of the topics that surround the news today (often their parents' opinions, but opinions all the same). But do they really know if they are truly conservative or liberal: democrat or republican?
This activity explores all of their beliefs and thoughts on a number of world/national issues and begin to filter their political preferences to one side of the spectrum or the other. This IS NOT an exercise to pin students against students, but rather to

Big Sky, Big Money Frontline PBS researches Political Campaign Financing
This Frontline video explores the use of excessive money in Political campaigns today. It is really current and delves into Super Pacs and 501 4c groups. They interview Democrats and Republicans involved in these activities. It hits home the fact that the general public doesn't know the difference between candidate ads and issue ads.
