MLK Jr.

As most students, I was not taught a lot about the Civil Rights Movement. At my high school, there was a class that you could take as an elective called African American Studies. In that class though, the Civil Rights Movement was not taught in depth. I was taught like most the "I have a dream...." speech, but that is basically it. Even in my college course AAAS 101 we even skipped over the section about the Civil Rights Movements because of time. That is pretty much it.
