| book description |

Since the late 1980s, there has been a renewed interest in the civil rights movement. Television documentaries, films and books have brought the struggles into our homes and classrooms once again. New evidence in older criminal cases demands that the judicial system reconsider the accuracy of investigations and legal decisions. Racial profiling, affirmative action, voting districting, and school voucher programmes keep civil rights on the front burner in the political arena. This work offers perspectives on presenting the movement in different classroom contexts; strategies to make the movement come alive for students; and issues highlighting topics that students should find appealing. Including sample syllabi and detailed descriptions from courses that prove effective, this work should be useful for all instructors, both college and upper level high school, for courses in history, education, race, sociology, literature and political science.
