Inspiration for the Tea Party
Two readings by excellent actors of famous speeches. Seriously, worth your time.
Alfre Woodard reads Sojourner Truth.
Danny Glover reads Frederick Douglass.
Enjoy and don't forget your treats for the tea party!

Videos...
Groups, I know there was some trouble uploading while I was away. Don't worry, we will get it sorted out. These are the videos I have received so far (that have youtube links. I have a few others that are broken into parts).
North:
Amy's group (please let me know who else was in this group. I think I recognize Nic Paulson's voice): great images and information, but sideways! Cuts off a little early.
Ryan R's group (please let me know who else was in this group.) Focus on the big questions a little more. You have great information here, but it would be great to be a little more organized.
Anna, Patrick and Patrick. Starting off with the question keeps it focused--you are able to connect the terms to those big ideas. Good work! Very clear pictures!
Spencer, Lucy & Megan's video above. What are some other ways the federal government benefited the North?
The South:
Ryan, Juan, and Carter's group. The siren in the background is a nice touch :) But, great job addressing the big picture here.
Scottie's group (who else was with you?) Besides the obvious issue, great discussion of the impact of technology here.
Kaushik, Andrew, Colin, Jose, and Marissa (did I really make a group of 5?) Very thorough job.
Mariana, Rishi, Kaylee, and Liz: simple graphics help reinforce the material. One small factual error about the reaper/plow.
The West:
The video above is from a group in 3A. but who??? Great camera work.
Austin, Alexis, and Rachel. Another upside down one, but a great use of the terms in context of answering the big questions.
Will, Alyssa, and Billy. Thoughtful description of the west, if not the most dramatic reading :)
Milli, Grey, Caroline, and Alex J's group. Very informative as well, but also sideways! I like the slide at the end where you address the issues specifically.
Julian, Alice, Dmitri, & Byron: a different approach! Creative, but a little hard to see your slides.
