Thanks, Summer, for bringing us "Imagine" by John Lennon and in turn, a very lively discussion about racism, cultural division and the education system in Memphis. I'm so glad that this discussion began and many of you spoke passionately about your own experiences. I'm sorry for those in the class who weren't there.
Homework for Tuesday, November 11, 2009
1, JOURNALS will be collected (Including a 1-2 page continuation of the class discussion. Many of you didn't get a chance to talk and wanted to, please tell me more of what you think about the subject.
2, Read the poems at left and make entries into your journals. Keep thinking about the poems that light a fire under you. You'll have to choose one other poem (different from the one you present) and write a 2-3 page poetry explication. Details to arrive on Tuesday.
