Civil Rights Photo Montage.m4v

A short photo montage that I composed for my final creative piece in my Civil Rights Era class. I chose what I thought were influential people and events in Civil Rights Movement and collected of them. The people and events that I chose were Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Malcolm X, the Brown v. Board of Education decision, the murder of Emmett Till, the Little Rock 9, the freedom bus rides, Bull Connors police brutality in Birmingham, Kings letter and imprisonment in the Birmingham jail, the March on Washington, Freedom Summer, voter registration drives, the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party, Johnsons signing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the rise of Black Power, and the Black Panther Party. With all of the photos that I gathered, I used imovie to arrange them in chronological order, placed all of the transitions, and set the song as the background music. The song is "I Have a Dream" by the artist Common.
