Description This lesson is part of the 72-page supplementary text "The Challenge of Diversity", which provides an in-depth look at issues of racial and ethnic diversity in the United States. It is intended for 9-12 and the lesson is linked to civics and U.S. history standards. In this lesson, students examine the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s. First, students read and discuss a short history of the civil rights movement. Next, in a small-group activity, students apply a diversity checklist to four hypothetical case studies involving contemporary problems of diversity. Includes a handout "addressing problems of diversity today".
