Lynching in America Assignment

This week we are going to look at the website Lynching on America, presented by the Equal Justice Initiative.  The website is linked below.  The link will take you to a series of 6 short videos (about 5 minutes each).  Choose 3 videos to watch, your choice of the 6 videos posted.  I don’t care which 3, so pick 3 with topics that appeal to you.  They are all around the same length.  Each video is an oral history, a primary source, a person talking about the impact of lynching on them. 

For the assignment, write a short overview of what the video was about and what you learned from it.  A short paragraph on each video will suffice; I would expect at least 5-6 sentences on each video though you are welcome to write more.  Include the name of the speaker at the start of each paragraph so I know which one you are writing on.  Include enough details to prove that you actually watched the films.

In a final short paragraph, include your thoughts on this assignment and this topic overall.
