Hidden Herstory: The Leesburg Stockade Girls
Hey TPS Architects -- A Georgia story of courage and of cruelty -- check out this link from the National Museum of African American History & Culture. A story of 15 young women (girls, really, ages 12 to 15) that were locked up in a stockade for up to 45 days for protesting segregation at a local movie theater. Their parents had no knowledge of where they were being held or the conditions of their situation.

The link includes a view of interviews with these young women today and views of the stockade. If you have trouble accessing the video -- find it here:

Testimonials
-
I love that there is new info on the site daily!
-
I had a wonderful time working with the Library of Congress and learning about all of the resources at my fingertips!
-
The TPS Teachers Network has an equal exchange of ideas. You know it's not a place where you're being judged.
-
My colleagues post incredibly fine resources and ideas....the caliber of the suggestions and resources make me feel that I take a lot from it. It's a takeaway. And I hope that I can give back as much as I get.
-
Going into this school year, I have a fantastic new resource for my own instruction and to share with my colleagues!
-
I am very glad that I discovered the TPS Teachers Network through RQI. Great resources can be hard to find out there on the internet!
There's also a video available in the Georgia Stories: Black History Collection that is accessible directly from the GPB website Education menu or via PBSLearningMedia (to assign to Google Classroom).
