| In the Midst of Greatness What happens when two of the greatest civil rights leaders meet? |
| Greetings, Kiya! What an event that would have been if it had only happened. You've done your best to portray a true to life scenario in a believable setting. And to avoid the conundrum of "why didn't this change history," you made a careful erasure at the end. The young, progressive college students bent on making meaningful change in society, and the discussion of broader issues and the clash between hope and self-defense, are masterfully painted in a calm yet passionate tone. The themes encourage us to take a closer look at these two great men of history and their beliefs which shaped their actions and activism. You can remove the icon for the scavenger hunt at the bottom of the page, as the activity is over. Also, the Washington Post article you link to is behind a paywall. Perhaps this Time Magazine writeup, though decidedly shallow and mostly promoting a movie, should be added alongside for those who don't have a subscription. https://time.com/6588337/mlk-malcolm-x-photo-true-story/ Also, the first sentence after the first scene divider reads a bit long and awkward. You can separate the two thoughts with a semicolon, or simply replace "did we" with "that we." Take care, thanks for sharing and keep writing
