Prior to reading the next chapters, we studied the vocabulary list for the reading. In that regard,we discussed the concept of "backsliding" or recidivism in prisons and the relationship between rehabilitation in prisons and recidivism . I also discussed the concept of connotation by comparing the vocabulary words "rustic" and "pastoral". We then examined the symbols of white supremacy in the next chapter . Bobby reviewed the text and identified the Confederate Flag and the statues of Confederate soldiers as embodiments of racism in the South in the 1940s. We discussed how the controversy over statues of Confederate soldiers continues to this day. For homework due Tuesday ,I assigned reading the next four chapters and completing the study guide on the reading.
