I thoroughly enjoyed your personal philosophies today. I was "enlightened" (!) by your words and by the inspirational artists behind many of your choices. We'll look at them again this week.
We watched the BBC documentary, Racism: The Coulour of Money, parts one and two, from Youtube today. I have read your exit cards, and really enjoyed how different your thoughts are about whether the ideas of slavery, biology, capitalism (etc) helped or hindered the enlightenment. We'll start the class tomorrow by looking at your exit cards, and in small groups, see if you agree or disagree with each other.
A reminder that two of you, Sean and Malcolm, have not handed in Processfolio Step one for your essay. Please do that asap.
For everyone else, you should be working on your annotated bibliographies. Please see me if you have any questions.
I look forward to our small group discussions tomorrow, the clip of Amistad we will watch, and the newest document we will read.
Enjoy!
