Video Project

I. Civil Rights Movement
    Interviewing Mr. Wiley about what life was like before and during Civil Rights
II. After the Movement
    Interviewing Mrs. Jewell about life as a child during Civil Rights, and life after
III. Future
    Interviewing college age to forty year olds

So often we associate the Civil Rights Movement with people we read about in History books or learn about in school. However, many of us speak to and look at everyday the very people who directly experienced it; our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. We often ignore what's being said or tell them we have no time to listen. And, as we do this, their memories, our history, are slowly being lost.
