Describe the significance of these artifacts to the event commemorated.

The world has seen many events and movements related to the violation of or struggle for human and civil rights over the centuries, and a number of these have been memorialized in museums and historical sites. Many of the struggles over human and civil rights have a strong basis in religious and/or moral values of the people and cultures in which they occur. For this assignment, you are asked to visit a museum’s or monument’s web site commemorating such an event or movement. Prepare a 5-8 minute class presentation that does the following: Name the museum or monument, its location, and the event or historical rights movement it memorializes. Briefly describe the event that is memorialized, explaining whether it was related to race or ethnicity, gender, religious, sexual, or civil rights. Provide at least TWO examples of the artifacts chosen to represent the event or the era that you viewed. These could be words, images, or recordings. For monuments, it could be a plaque or display. Describe the significance of these artifacts to the event commemorated. Explain why you believe these artifacts were chosen. Do you believe that they represent the event they are commemorating well? Why or why not? Discuss why a culture would choose to memorialize such an event. What purposes does memorialization serve for cultures and societies (both those that are the subject of the memorialization, and those from other cultures and societies)?
