Those who lived closer to the equator had darker skin and those further away had lighter skin. This was a function of survival.

Students can think about the impact of this and then listen to what the video says about it.

Students will likely be familiar with Dr. King’s words: “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” However, students will be able to use this cartoon to consider what that might mean in terms of “colorblindness.”

Students could look through their own history texts to see which stories are told and which stories are not.

Some of the more relevant posters include: "The Same Effort for Everyone?," "I Had a Dream," "The Power of a Label," and "Masking Our Differences." Additional questions could be brought up to fit the topic of the conversation for each poster.

Du Bois and how race is constructed in society.

With colorblindness, equality may be present, but not equity.]]> 2023-08-06 23:24:27 UTC https://padlet.com/m_woods28/x3dyf723d2hwvdmj/wish/2656836401
