Photo Analysis
There are two photo links to use for this activity:
- Selma-to-Montgomery march, Alabama Sovereignty Commission, Alabama Department of Archives and History Public Information
- Spider Martin Photo Gallery of the Selma-to-Montgomery march, Spider Martin Official Site
Have students select at least five images from each link that they think are the most moving. Students will use the images to create a photo journal to tell the story of the 1965 Selma-to-Montgomery voting rights march. Each image must have a caption. The journal should have a brief introduction explaining the importance of the march. If students do not have access to the Internet, the teacher should select the images to display. The images may be shown as a PowerPoint presentation or copied and used as transparencies. In either case, students should use the Photo Analysis Worksheet (pdf) to interpret the documents.
