My topic was about Roy Wilkins. He was an African-American activist and journalist who helped change history for the better of our country. He was a graduate of University of Minnesota for sociology and wrote for many newspapers. He was executive director of the NAACP for 46 years and then eventually stepped down. His contributions were valued by African-American literature, and for equal voting rights for fellow African Americans and notable marches. What I learned from this project was that these people impacted so much that we do not realize. Their determination to fight for their rights is how we are today. What I especially liked about this project was learning about new people and what they did for civil rights and learning how they are recognized for their contributions. Some changes I would make would be to not pick our partners because people with their friends will tend not to do their work.
