Ralph McGill: the "Conscience of the South"

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Young scholars view a film, "Dawn's Early Light: Ralph McGill and the Segregated South." As groups of students observe the movie, they list key dates, significant persons interviewed, and cultural characteristics. Upon completion of the movie, young scholars create a timeline of McGills life, a timeline the Civil Rights movement, and write a biographical sketch of important people. Students discuss cultural changes.
