Pulitzer Prize Recipient and Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison Shares Her Story about School Integration with Online Movies and Multimedia Resources Teaching Brown v. Board of Education

Students and teachers can take an online journey with Toni Morrison through the tumultuous time of school desegregation, sparked by the Brown v. Board of Education decision fifty years ago, on http://www.TeachingBooks.net. Access to this
program is free of charge.

Two brief movies narrated by this Nobel Laureate and Pulitzer Prize-winning author introduce viewers to her book, Remember: The Journey to School Integration (Houghton Mifflin Company, 2004), and reveal photographs and motion-picture images of the events and emotions felt by both sides of the issue.

TeachingBooks.net's program, created for the classroom, offers multimedia resources for sharing the impact of Brown v. Board of Education, including the two movies; reproducible copies of Dr. Morrison's introduction to the book, Remember, entitled, "The Narrow Path, the Open Gate, the Wide Road"; and links to five of the most authoritative resources on the Web for teaching Brown including: the full Supreme Court decision, the US digital archive collection, and the History of Education Society's collection of essays examining the diverse impact of Brown in the past fifty years.
