What this Study Guide is About
This
easy to follow Study Guide was developed with the assistance of a
classroom teacher with over thirty (30) years teaching experience
and a MED degree from Tuskegee University. Its tools and oth er
resources help classroom teachers and parents
bring the history and social life and customs of rural
Wilkinson County, Mississippi during the 1940’s and ‘50’s to
life. It
contains over 150 questions and a number of other learning tools
(i.e. puzzles, suggested activities) that enhance based stories
from the book, Soul Stirrings. Answers (for teachers) are provided
for all but thought questions in order to facilitate classroom
discussion.
This history is of
particular importance because experiences throughout rural America
mirror much that is represented in Soul Stirrings.
For many Black Americans, this will be the first time they
have seen their own past chronicled.
