=WELCOME STUDENTS! = ====We looked at four important words that relate to civil rights. Here is what we discovered.  ==== ====Ruba T. - I looked at four words and I found their meanings in the dictionary. I found out that segregation means separation. I also made a connection between the fact that black Americans were separated from white Americans, it was because of the color of their skins. ====

=Mehak S. - I looked for the definition of movement and I found out that it means something that leads to a fight. One important movement, was the Asian American civil rights movement. = = = =Daniel T. - I looked at discrimination; I found out that it means treating people in different ways. For example if the students who are Mets fans don't let the students who are Yankees fans play with them, that is discrimination. = = = =Hajrije J. - I looked at the word injustice. It means violation of rights. For example, if you want to express yourself, by using the freedom of speech and someone stops you, that is a violation of rights. =
