CPWC Day 20 - Imperialism, Independence, & Apartheid

Objective: Continue to examine the legacies of imperialism in Africa.  Explain the development, implementation, and collapse of apartheid in South Africa.

Task: We will pick up where we left off yesterday, getting into the focus groups looking at the 6 legacies of imperialism. Groups 2-6 will present the main ideas and supporting facts they learned from the selected readings on "Legacies of Imperialism in Africa." When we have finished the presentation and taking notes, we will recap how the lasting effects of imperialism help answer the essential questions of the unit. Next we will watch a brief documentary on apartheid in South Africa. With the remainder of class time, you will work on a writing assignment that ties together t the scramble for Africa and contemporary influences of colonialism in Africa.
