This lesson is geared towards middle school students. Civic engagement with African American
Wisconsinites as classroom speakers is the focus.

This lesson is designed for middle school students to get an understanding of how things have
changed (or not) over time as it pertains to strengths, perseverance and oppression related to
African Americans over time. The time period is from then (whenever then is depicted in the
films) and present day African American culture.

This lesson is about the importance of getting beyond the four walls of the classroom;
regardless of the field trip location chosen (there are a plethora to choose from below),
prepare the students for the experience through a picture walk of the site, reading about
the site, or having someone from the site talk (in person or virtually) about what the
students are going to experience. While this lesson can be suitable for any age level, this
is geared towards the third through fifth grades and can span any time period.
