Hello, this is Malia back with more
pictures to use to analyze the civil rights movement and the anti-apartheid
movement.
The first picture I found was
created by a fifth-grader named Andra Tudor of the Sabah Kinder Art (SKA)
Academy of Art and Design.
The piece is
called “The Civil Rights Movement.” I like this piece because it combines
important aspects of the civil rights movement (freedom, Martin Luther King
Jr.) with American symbols (Statue of liberty, flag).
The message that I get from this artwork is
that the Civil Rights movement was a fight for freedom in America where the
high level of determination never fell.
I find it amazing that people as young as the fifth grade understand the
hardships and importance of the civil rights movement.
The next picture I found is of the
Soweto Uprising which is an important event during the apartheid. The Soweto Uprising was when an ample amount
of high school students led protests in South Africa againt apartheid on June 16,
1976. 20,000 students protested and 176
students were killed. The students sang
and held signs during the protest. Dogs
were let loose and shots were fired on these children. Once again the youth showed
determination. That is why the words I
focused on today were YOUNG and DETERMINATION.
Happiness to All
