In class today, we looked at a picture of the march on Washington and talked about the new civil rights laws that had been instated at the time. We talked even more about whether the civil rights movement was really over and/or successful, and came to the conclusion that it wasn't because Alabama is still trying to do some things to discriminate.

Although I was absent in class today, on Monday we looked at documents about Rosa Parks and the bus boycotts, specifically, the reason they worked. We looked at excerpts from many sources that talked about Rosa Parks and what she did, along with the Bus boycotts in general. We discussed whether or not school and areas were still segregated, if segregation still exists, if it will ever be fully abolished, and things like that.
