2. For week eleven, your “lecture” is over the Ghosts of Amistad: In the Footsteps of the Rebels and “The Amistad Rebellion: An Atlantic Odyssey of Slavery and Freedom.” While viewing these documentaries, take thorough notes. You will submit your notes for a grade (50 points).
The links:
Brief video link: Book TV: “The Amistad Rebellion: An Atlantic Odyssey of Slavery and Freedom” (Links to an external site.)
Film link: Ghosts of Amistad: In the Footsteps of the Rebels (Links to an external site.)Instructions:
1. Begin with this 10 minutes closed-captioned summary about the Amistad by author and documentarian Marcus Rediker.
2. As you listen and watch the videos, take copious notes. These notes may be handwritten or typed.
3. Include a heading/title for each of the two videos. Do not submit the video transcripts as your notes.
3a. The Amistad Rebellion notes are worth 15 points.
3b. Ghosts of Amistad: In the Footsteps of the Rebels notes are worth 35 points.
4. If you choose the handwritten notes route, take pictures of your notes and upload them here. You should have a minimum of two pages of handwritten notes. All notes must be in your own words and no other sources are permitted in this assignment. I can spot Wiki notes a mile away. Again, do not upload film transcripts for notes.
