Class Update: 2-4-13 and 2-5-13

Yesterday we took notes on the end of the civil war and ways that civil rights issues were handled. It's extremely sad to see the way that amendments and laws were passed in an attempt to give equal rights to all, but they were either ignored or eliminated. Today we talked about what it really means to be equal, and if "Separate but Equal" can really exist. It seems that in certain situations equal can mean different things, even though the definition seems clear.
