"Mississippi Burning" murders resonate 50 years later The postcard looks ordinary enough. It's a message written from a 20-year-old to his parents, informing them that he'd arrived safely in Meridian, Mississippi for a summer job. "This is a wonderful town and the weather is fine. The card was postmarked June 21, 1964. Fifty years have passed since Goodman and two other civil rights workers, James Chaney and Michael Schwerner, were ambushed and shot dead by the Ku Klux Klan in Philadelphia, Mississippi. The three young men had been volunteering for a "Freedom Summer" campaign to register African-American voters. 50 years ago: When all eyes were on Mississippi Andy Goodman's fateful journey to Mississippi began in Manhattan, where he grew up in an upper-middle class family on the Upper West Side. "He just said ... it's unfair that because of the color of your skin, you should go to a lousy school," David Goodman said. That sense of social justice led Andy Goodman to Ohio in June 1964.

An Englishman in Sweden US Map / USA Map / United States Map - Maps and Information about the United States Early Beginnings America's initial Stone Age inhabitants arrived here by traversing the Bering Strait. During the following centuries, a wide variety of Indian cultures developed and prospered across the land. After Columbus made his initial voyage to this New World, word of its potential riches spread across Europe, and colonizers and settlers by the thousands soon stepped ashore along the Atlantic Ocean coastline. In 1620, the Pilgrims arrived on the Mayflower, landing in what is modern-day Massachusetts; their settlement named Plymouth survived, and the story of a new nation was subsequently born. Declaration of Independence One century later Britain's upstart colonies broke from England and declared their new-found independence during the Revolutionary War. The new country of America expanded rapidly, well beyond the reach of the original 13 colonies, and inevitable conflicts and wars over lands rightfully claimed by indigenous peoples was the result.

Reader Ideas | Teaching the Civil Rights Movement Jeremy M. Lange for The New York TimesThe International Civil Rights Center and Museum opened in 2010 inside a former Woolworth building in Greensboro, N.C. The store was the site of a series of luncheonette “sit-ins” against segregation beginning on Feb. 1, 1960. Go to related article » This month, we asked educators, How Do You Teach the Civil Rights Movement? Many echoed the findings of the Southern Poverty Law Center by writing that this era of history is little taught in their own schools and districts. Just as many educators mentioned the importance of teaching the civil rights movement in the context of African-American history as a whole, since many students bring very little background knowledge to the subject. A comment from John Padula, a Boston middle school teacher, brought together many of the points others raised: I teach grades 6, 7 and 8 in the Boston Public Schools. It’s not too late to add your own thoughts. History, Social Studies, Civics English Language Arts The Arts
