Newscast On Selma To Montgomery Marches

selma march 1 – Medium (1)-2atwdh6

Emma, Io, and I made this video speaking about the Selma to Montgomery marches and how they connect to All American Boys by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely. We structured the video so that at first, it was in 1965 reporting on the scene live, and then, we go to 53 years later, and we report on it as it connects to our book and our current government. I’m very proud of this project, and cannot wait to share it in class!

My name is Margaret and I'm part of the refugee social justice group. Only 1% of refugees are resettled, and the rest of them must either stay in danger or leave illegally. Even those who are resettled face homelessness, poverty, and many other issues a lot of us are lucky to not have to face. Our government has lowered the amount of refugees we let in by 50%, and until we make our voices heard.
