Topic: The Struggle for Freedom

Speaker: Kathleen Maynes Northover

Kathleen is a student at Seneca College. An assignment to produce a project for Black History Month resulted in an interesting presentation on the history of the American struggle to create equality for Black people.

To end discrimination, hatred, persecution, and daily lives of fear, which the black population of the USA has endured for centuries, continues to be a major driving force of the civil rights movement.

Kathleen produced a presentation which uses unique elements, such as live clips to emphasize key elements of the struggle for freedom, which was championed by Martin Luther King Jr.
