Maya Angelou's Caged Bird

First lesson of the resources to work on Maya Angelou's Caged Bird. It includes a powepoint, with a short introduction to "What is poetry?", racism, segregation and the Freedom Riders, worksheets, an extra resource bank with audio visual materials. We look at the historical and social background, we see Nicki Minaj reading "Still I Rise", then study black exploitation. Great looking powerpoints with appealing pictures and embed videos.
