HIS 110 – Week 6- ASSIGNMENT

Research question: What lessons from African Americans’ struggles for equality in the past can help inform current and future civil rights issues?

STEP 1

Primary Source 1: Martin Luther King, Jr. August 28, 1963. “I Have a Dream,” Address Delivered at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. http://libdatab.strayer.edu/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=bwh&AN=426216.20130121&site=eds-live&scope=site

Primary Source 2: Malcolm X. April 3, 1964. The Ballot or the Bullet.

1. What have you learned from your PRIMARY sources about how these challenges were addressed by society or how these changes affected society?

2. What have you learned from your PRIMARY sources about the historical challenges or social changes that relate to your research question?

3. How does the information you learned from your PRIMARY sources connect to the current issues mentioned in your research question?

STEP 2

Secondary Source 1: Gilda Graff. 2016. Post Civil War African American History: Brief Periods of Triumph, and Then Despair. http://libdatab.strayer.edu/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=113759423&site=eds-live&scope=site

1. What are some pieces of evidence (like facts or examples) from your SECONDARY sources that support what you’ve learned from your primary sources?

2. What evidence (like facts, data, or examples) is missing from your SECONDARY sources—what else would you still like to learn about your topic that these sources didn’t tell you?

STEP 3: APPLICATION

Remember, the Application step is about finding connections. Your four sources are listed below, and it’s time to think about your group of sources as a whole. What information do they agree on? Do they contradict one another? Can you corroborate facts from one source by confirming those facts in another source
