Friday, March 4

Students received two more handouts related to Birth of a Nation, a two-page biography of D.W. Griffith and a six-page excerpt from Howard Zinn People's History of the United States which offers a radically different view of Reconstruction from that of Griffith's film.



We watched more sections of the film, including the Moment of Inspiration (birth of the KKK) and the Death of Flora.

HW due Monday:
Read the two handouts.
