Description

Looking for a no-prep way to cover the Civil Rights Movement with your students? This ready to go slide deck (available as both a PowerPoint and Google Slides) covers the major events in the Civil Right Movement from Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier in baseball through key events in the 1950s like Brown v. Board of Education and the Montgomery Bus Boycott through the 1960s and ending with assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King.
