HWC Day 18 - Nationalism & Independence in Africa

Objective:   Examine the status of Africa during European incursion (1850-1910).  Identify key events and justifications for European imperialism in Africa.

Task:  We'll begin class with a discussion based upon the "Let's Consider..." handout.  Then, we'll spend a few minutes reviewing "Scramble for Africa" before watching a select excerpt from Uganda Rising.   Next, you'll work with partners to review your notes about Nkrumah, Fanon, & Nyerere.  As a whole class, we'll identify the main ideas from each reading along with similarities and differences between these three nationalist leaders.
