Yesterday, with a substitute, we started our look at the next episode of The Century called Happy Daze, using this VIEWING GUIDE as we watched. The episode is embedded below.
Then, today, in addition to finishing the film, we went back into our notes from the Foner readings of the last couple of nights to continue to try to determine how freedom was being defined at this time. We tried to answer that question in a reflective piece of writing in our notebooks while also determining how those definitions shaped the idea of what it meant to be an American. We tried to identify specific examples that showed the ways in which freedom was being defined.
We then turned our attention to two of the voices of freedom found on pages 718-719 of Foner and with partners discussed how each was defining freedom and then answering the questions on page 719.
