Sacco and Vanzetti
As I was preparing for this weeks discussions in my AP United States history class, I came across this
mini documentary
of the famous Sacco and
Vanzetti
case. I think this video does a good job with describing the case and more importantly, the reactions during and after the case. I plan to use this video this week to
generate
discussion about
prejudice
and the effects it can have government and individuals, hopefully demonstrating that this case was not simply a case of two immigrant
anarchist's
who may or may not have robbed and murdered, but about the
hysteria
of eliminating potential threats to the "American" way of life.
