Welcome to Module 5! The list below outlines what you need to do for this module.

Read Chapter 5 of American Government (Civil Rights).
Check out the supplemental resources available to you on the next Module page.
Then read the Module 5 discussion prompt and respond with your initial post (your answer to my prompt) by 11:59pm on Friday. Two thoughtful follow-ups are due in the discussion forum by 11:59pm on Sunday. The discussion board closes after the Sunday deadline so no late posts will be accepted.
Finally complete and submit the Unit 2 Exam covering chapters 4 & 5 by 11:59pm on Sunday.

By completing this week's reading and assignments, you will achieve the following Course Objectives:

Trace the struggle of equal rights as it has occurred at both the Federal and California State levels. Relevant legislation and judicial decisions will be studied and the importance of these critically assessed.
Articulate and explain the rights and obligations of citizenship.

Any general questions should be posted to the Q&A Forum. If you message me a general question, I will tell you to post to the Q&A Forum. By asking a question and receiving an answer (either from me or your classmates) in this forum, you will help other students who have the same question-just like in a face-to-face class!

If you have a personal concern or private matter to discuss now or at any time throughout the semester, you must message me via the Canvas Inbox. The surest way to get a quick response from me regarding a private matter is the Canvas Inbox. I do not check my COD email as frequently as I do Canvas and thus your email will likely get lost among several others. Canvas is also the best way to send secure messages that contain personal/private information.
