Unit Plan Resources- American History

Course: American History
Unit Plan: The 1960s

Keeping track of some of the resources I would like to include in this unit plan which may help me with the next lesson plan assignment.

JFK's Inaugural Address http://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/kennedy.asp
LBJ's Inaugural Address http://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/johnson.asp

This website has a bunch of American speeches listed by decade. It provides a pdf and a mp3 for each speech. Great resource for American history classes.
- Newton Norman Minow "Television and the Public Interest"
- Martin Luther King's "I have a Dream"
- Malcolm X "The Ballot or the Bullet"
- LBJ's "Great Society"
- Stokely Carmichael "Black Power"
- Robert Francis Kennedy Remarks on the Assassination of MLK

And just for fun:
This is from Archives.gov

Missiles, Missiles, Missiles!
