Objectives:  Survey the various paths toward independence in Africa in the twentieth century.  Explain the development, implementation, and collapse of apartheid in South Africa.

Task:  To start class, you'll post a reflection to our class blog while I'm checking for homework completion.  Then, we'll spend the next portion of class discussing the nationalism and use the regional study to guide us through our examination of apartheid in South Africa, war in the Congo, and Islamic extremism in Somalia.

We'll spend the last few minutes of class on the FCP Ning connecting with students from other schools involved in FCP13-1.
