  • Review Chapter 6 Test
  
Lesson 2 Read:  the synopsis of the film, the short timeline of civil rights in America, and the transcripts of Marshall and Davis' closing arguments before the Supreme Court.
Lesson 3  
Lesson 4 GRQ:  Consulting your textbook, notes, discuss and give your opinion on the case of Brown v Board of Education.  If you did not know the outcome of the case, would you be more more swayed Marshall's arguments or Davis'? How much of the case was won on legal precedent? How much by social science? How much was it determined by the personalities on the court?  Could the case have been won without Earl Warren as Chief Justice?
