Jeudi 02/05\Vendredi 03/05

Today we discussed négritude and the poem by Léon Damas.  Then we went to the computer lab to do some research around American minorities (see TEC).

Travail en Classe (TEC):  Activité: Études (back page of l’Afrique packet).  Choose an American minority to do a brief study on.  The idea is to potentially make connections between the colonial experience and the immigrant experience and relate our study of Africa/France back to the US.  Please do the bulk of this study in French…if you want to add additional details in English, that’s ok.
