Entry 3


The reason I chose to create a drawing is similar to the previous entry. I could not believe that I had been taught incorrectly some of the things that I thought I knew. I had even told my students the information incorrectly. I had believed that Rosa Parks started the movement for the Civil Rights Act. I also believed that she had been sitting in a white chair and in reality she was sitting where she was allowed to. It makes the situation even more upsetting that they tried to kick her out of her chair. In regard to the podcast I could not believe anything I heard. For a teacher to be able to humiliate students by dividing them like that is shocking to me. I would think that teachers would need to discuss their lesson with the school. I hope that there is more awareness now when it comes to teaching about slavery and history. I think students can feel emotional enough by just listening to what slaves had to go through. Having students understand how they felt through acting and actions I feel is very inappropriate, no matter the age of the student.
