Yesterday in class we read four different documents that talked about Garvey. Garvey had the view that African Americans should go back to their motherland, Africa. Today we read two poems about the south. Then we listened to songs from the Harlem renaissance. Lastly we looked at pictures from the Harlem renaissance. These showed how African Americans had a better and easier life in the north then the south.

Last class we recorded our talking for our projects. Today we read a document about washington and debois, who had two different ideas of how black people could gain equality with whites.

Yesterday we talked about what equal actually means. How separation can never be equal. Then we talked about the Plessy vs. Ferguson trials. This was about a car separation Act which separated blacks and whites on train cars. How the law was unfair to arrest him for sitting in the white section. Today we learned about the jim crow laws. We also worked on our RSA projects.

Last week we read about Andrew johnson in his obituary, who was Lincoln's vice president. We then discussed about him. Then learned what he did and how he was almost impeached. Then today I was absent from class.
