Universal Understandings
When different cultures interact, differences are apparent and this often leads to conflict.
Tolerance is the ability to have a fair, objective, and permissive attitude toward opinions and practices that differ from one's own.
Tolerance can be achieved through understanding differences and learning about other cultures.
• Tolerance has been achieved by those who were willing to stand up for the rights of others.

Historian Award Text (Just add pictures)
House slaves usually lived better than field slaves. They usually had better food and were sometimes given the family’s cast off clothing. Harriet Jacobs reports that her mistress would station herself in the kitchen and wait until the meal was dished and then spit in all the kettles and pans to make sure that slaves would not eat the left overs.
CESAR CHAVEZ (1927-1993)
was a Mexican American farm worker, labor leader, and civil rights activist who co-founded the National Farm Workers Association, which later became the United Farm Workers. He is considered a hero for farm laborers because he fought to keep wages higher and improve work safety rules.
WOMENS SUFFRAGE 1918
Education has been the stumbling block keeping women from attaining equal status in society, separating them from their male counterparts. It has also been the door to this elusive dream of equality. Before women gained the right and privilege of higher education they were believed to be lower-class citizens, not worthy of voting or owning property, or any number of other “inalienable rights”.
FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT
On July 28, 1868, former slaves became citizens when the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified. Known as the "Reconstruction Amendment," it forbids any state to deny to any person "life, liberty or property, without due process of law" or to "deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of its laws."
THE AFRICAN AMERICAN CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT (1955-1968) refers to the reform movements in the United States aimed at abolishing racial discrimination of blacks; this article covers the phase of the movement between 1954 and 1968, particularly in the South. By 1966, there was the emergence of the Black Power Movement, which was to ensure freedom from White domination.
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. (1929-1968)
Although arrested, bombed and personally abused, King became a symbolic leader for African Americans and a world figure for his nonviolent protests against segregation.
TSUYAKO KITACHIMA “Sox” (1922-2005)
Civil Rights Advocate
Born in California, Kochiyama was interned in a Japanese relocation center during WW II. After her release, she and her family moved to New York City where she took part in civil rights demonstrations. She met Malcolm X in 1963; they worked together to call attention to the struggle of oppressed people.
Text for Postcard Awards
Japanese American internment was the forced removal and internment of approximately 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans (62% of whom were United States citizens) from the West Coast of the United States during World War II.
On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks became famous for refusing to obey bus driver James Blake’s order that she give up her seat to make room for a white passenger. This action of civil disobedience started the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which is one of the largest movements against racial segregation.
Jack Roosevelt "Jackie" Robinson (January31, 1919 – October 24, 1972) became the first African-American major league baseball player of the modern era in 1947.
The Emancipation Proclamation consists of two executive orders issued by United States President Abraham Lincoln during the American Civil War. The first one, issued September 22 1862, declared the freedom of all slaves in any state of the Confederate States of America that did not return to Union control by January 1, 1863
“When I Was Young” Big Book by Shannon Lockard
When I was young
When I was young
My grandmother said to me…
Women marched for the right to vote. It's called women's suffrage you see...
The 19th amendment made women's voting legal, finally…
That's what she said to me.
Page 1
When I was young
When I was young
My grandfather said to me…
The government forced us to sell off our homes and move far from the sea.
Internment camps housed those who were feared to have Japanese loyalty.
That's what he said to me.
Page 2
When I was young
When I was young
My grandmother said to me…
We picked in the fields but our wages were lower than those of Whites you see.
Boycotts and strikes helped us stand for our rights and receive equal pay, indeed.
That's what she said to me.
Page 3
When I was young
When I was young
My grandfather said to me…
Blacks could not eat where the Whites ate treats. Segregation was all we could see.
We marched peacefully to achieve a great dream. Equality was to be.
That's what he said to me.
Page 4
When I was young
When I was young
My grandmother said to me…
We were forced to leave the lands which we loved because of unjust treaties.
Through many years of injustice and tears we fought for rights to be free.
That's what she said to me.
Page 5
When we were young
When we were young
Our grandparents shared history…
They told terrible tales of prejudice that has plagued this land of the free.
Great leaders showed us to peacefully say we would not be treated unfairly.
That's what is history.

Civil Rights Sound Off
By Shannon Lockard 2007
Fear and hatred paved the way,
Unfair treatment and low pay.
Oppressed people of all kinds
Were unhappy with their lives.
Sound off—Oppression
Sound off—Discrimination
Sound off—one, two, three, four…We need change!
Voting rights and salary
Respect and life quality
Dependent on color of skin
Gender, class, and origin
Sound off—Inequality
Sound off—Prejudice
Sound off—one, two, three, four…We need change!
Strong leaders they stood up to fight,
Boycotts, marches, for their rights.
Protesters held up many signs,
Picketing to change both laws and minds.
Sound off—Boycotts
Sound off—Protests
Sound off—one, two, three, four…We need change!
Throughout history progress was made.
Segregation has begun to fade,
Women’s suffrage (suf-er-age) was granted,
And wages now are not as slanted.
Sound off—Fairness
Sound off—Equality
Sound off—one, two, three, four…We need change!
Fear and hatred still exist.
Discrimination still persists.
With tolerance and showing respect,
We can work to change the rest.
Sound off—Respect
Sound off—Progress
Sound off—one, two, three, four…We need change!

I’m a Protester (Tune: I’m a Nut)
By Shannon Lockard 2007
I’m a protester strong and proud,
Marching on the hot, hot ground.
I march by day and plan by night,
Fighting for my inalienable rights.
I’m a protester! (fist in the air twice)
I’m a protester! (fist in the air twice)
From oppression to a free and equal land,
We persuaded those with the power in hand.
Boycotting ‘til the busses suffered,
We changed Jim Crow laws for-ever.
I’m a protester! (fist in the air twice)
I’m a protester! (fist in the air twice)

Civil Rights Leader Bugaloo
By Shannon Lockard ( 2007
I’m a civil rights leader and I’m here to say
I like standing for equal rights everyday.
Sometimes I lead a march, sometimes I boycott goods,
But always I support equality like I should.
Marches, boycotts, protests, too.
Doing the civil rights leader bugaloo!
There was discrimination, this must be told.
Minorities were oppressed, young and old.
Races were segregated, and women couldn’t vote,
Land was taken; hatred needed an antidote.
Marches, boycotts, protests, too.
Doing the civil rights leader bugaloo!
Young, old, men, and women, too,
Civil rights leaders fighting for a different view.
Next time you stand up for equal rights, it’s true
You are doing the civil rights leader bugaloo!
Marches, boycotts, protests, too.
Doing the civil rights leader bugaloo!

Susan B. Anthony
(February 15, 1820 – March 13, 1906)
Key Ideals
Susan was a prominent, independent and well-educated American civil rights leader who played a pivotal role in the 19th century women's rights movement to secure women's suffrage, or right to vote, in the United States. Before fighting for equal political rights for women, Susan also fought against slavery, for the voting rights for African American men, for prohibition, and for equal pay for women. Overall, Susan wanted equality for everyone.
| |
| |
| |
| |
Realities
Susan B. Anthony supported the Equal Rights Association (ERA), which had originally fought for both blacks’ and women’s right to suffrage. When the ERA voted to support the 15th Amendment to the Constitution granting suffrage to black men, but not women, Anthony questioned why women should support this amendment when black men were not continuing to show support for women’s voting rights. Partially as a result of the decision by the Equal Rights Association, Anthony soon thereafter devoted herself almost exclusively to the movement for women's rights. Women continued to be treated and seen as inferior to men.
| |
| |
| |
| |
Achievements
In 1869, Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton founded the National Women's Suffrage Association (NWSA), an organization dedicated to gaining women's suffrage. Anthony was vice-president-at-large of the NWSA from the date of its organization until 1892, when she became president of the organiztion. On January 1, 1868, Anthony first published a weekly journal entitled The Revolution. Published in New York City. The main thrust of The Revolution was to promote women’s and African Americans’ right to suffrage, but it also discussed issues of equal pay for equal work, more liberal divorce laws, and the church’s position on women’s issues. In 1893, she joined with Helen Barrett Montgomery in forming a chapter of the Woman’s Educational and Industrial Union (WEIU) in Rochester. In 1898, she also worked with her to raise funds to open opportunities for women students to study at University of Rochester, a goal which was reached in 1900.
| |
| |
| |
| |
Interesting Facts
She traveled thousands of miles throughout the United States and Europe, and gave 75 to 100 speeches per year on women's rights for about 45 years. Susan B. Anthony died in Rochester, New York, in her house on Madison St. on March 13, 1906, and is buried at Mount Hope Cemetery. Susan B. Anthony, who died 14 years, 5 months and 5 days before passage of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote, was honored as the first real (non-allegorical) American woman on circulating U.S. coinage with her appearance on the Susan B. Anthony dollar. The coin, approximately the size of a U.S. quarter, was minted for only four years, 1979, 1980, 1981, and 1999.

Cesar Chavez
(March 31, 1927 – April 23, 1993)
Key Ideals
Cesar Chavez was a Mexican American farm worker, labor leader, and civil rights activist. From the 1950s until he died in 1993, Cesar Chavez stood up for his ideals and urged Mexican American farm workers to do the same. Chavez was active in helping Mexican Americans register to vote. He believed in fair and equal pay for Hispanic farm workers. And, inspired by the beliefs of Gandhi, he won many gains by protesting non-violently.
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
Realities
In 1942, Cesar Chavez graduated from the eighth grade. He could not attend high school because his father Librado had been in an accident and did not want his mother Juana to work in the fields. Instead, Cesar became a migrant farm worker picking lettuce and beets. As a farm worker, Cesar Chavez endured and was witness to unfair treatment of farm workers. The wages for Hispanic farm workers were lower than those of white farm workers. In addition to the low pay, the farmers would sometimes withhold pay. Cesar decided he needed to take action against the injustice. Cesar Chavez endured years of fasting, jail, marching, picketing and bargaining before farmers gave in.
| |
| |
| |
| |
Achievements
Cesar Chavez is hailed as one of the greatest American civil rights leaders alongside of Martin Luther King, Jr. Chavez started working as an organizer in 1952 for the Community Services Organization (CSO), a Latino civil rights group. He traveled throughout California and made speeches in support of worker’s rights. Chavez also organized strikes, marches, and a boycott of merchants in Oxnard to protest unemployment. He became CSO’s national director in the late 1950s. Four years later Chavez left the CSO and co-founded the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA) with Dolores Huerta. Chavez led La Causa, the farm workers’ fight for their rights. On September 8, 1965, Filipino farm workers initiated the Delano Grape Strike to protest in favor of higher wages. The strike lasted for five years and got national attention. When the U.S. Senate Subcommittee looked into the situation, Robert Kennedy gave Chavez his total support. This effort resulted in the first major labor victory for U.S. farm workers. Chavez won many more great gains for farm workers.
| |
| |
| |
| |
Interesting Facts
Cesar Chavez’s birthday has become a holiday in four U.S. states. Many parks, cultural centers, libraries, schools, and streets have been named in his honor in several cities across the United States. After his death, Chavez received the U.S. Medal of Freedom from President Clinton, which his wife Helen received in his honor.

Tsuyako “Sox” Kitashima
(1918-December 29, 2005)
Key Ideals
Tsuyako “Sox” Kitashima was a Japanese American who was sent to an internment camp during WWII, like thousands of other Japanese Americans. Once she returned to San Francisco, Sox fought to gain compensation for those interned. She also believed that children needed to be educated about the experiences she had and lessons she learned while interned, so she spent time speaking to children about the internment.
| |
| |
| |
| |
Realities
Sox was 23 years old when her world forever changed, Dec. 7, 1941, the day Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Because of government fears of allegiance between Japanese Americans and Japan, her family was forced to leave the small strawberry farm they owned. They were sent along with 120,000 Japanese Americans into relocation centers. The Japanese Americans sent to the relocation centers, or internment camps, were forced to sell their homes and belongings and leave behind the life that they worked so hard to build. Sox’s family spent several months in the Tanforan Assembly Center - a temporary camp at a horse racetrack in San Bruno. Then they were sent to a camp in Topaz, Utah, where they lived for three years. Alan Kitashima said some of his mother's harshest recollections were of the time she spent at Tanforan. "They were put in horse stalls, with hay on the floors and horse manure," said Kitashima. "Basically no privacy at all, and the smell was horid."
| |
| |
| |
| |
Achievements
In the 1980s, Mrs. Kitashima helped organize community participation in the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians hearings and became a spokeswoman for the National Coalition for Redress and Reparations. Her efforts culminated in the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, which granted a formal governmental apology and compensatory payments to Japanese Americans detained during wartime. She was awarded a Free Spirit Award from The Freedom Forum in 1998 for her efforts.
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
Interesting Facts
Mrs. Kitashima worked at the San Francisco Veterans Administration Medical Center for 30 years, retiring in 1981 and focusing her full attention on the reparations effort and community activism. She served on the San Francisco Commission on Aging advisory council and was a longtime volunteer with Kimochi Inc., a nonprofit organization in Japantown that helps seniors. Mrs. Kitashima helped create a facility for the elderly called Kimochi Home, a 24-hour, 20-bed non-medical care center, said Kimochi Inc. development director Sandy Mori. "Sox was a volunteer with us for over 25 years," said Mori. "She would help in the preparation of meals for seniors. She used to do it every single day." Sox was known as the “godmother of Japantown” because she took care of Japanese and Asian Americans in so many ways.

Dennis Banks
(April 12, 1932- )
Key Ideals
Dennis Banks is a Native American leader, teacher, lecturer, activist, and author. He has spent his life trying to protect the traditional ways of the Native American people and protect treaty laws. Dennis has been working toward establishing peace among the races through education, as well as, teaching respect for our earth.
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
Realities
As Europeans began to immigrate to the United States, Native Americans were forced off their lands and were encouraged and sometimes forced to abandon their culture. The white settlers made treaties with tribes, which were seldom kept. Today, Native Americans are fighting for their rights to maintain their heritage, including hunting and fishing, trapping, and wild rice farming.
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
Achievements
In 1968 he co-founded the American Indian Movement (AIM). In 1972 he assisted in the organization of AIM's "Trail of Broken Treaties", a caravan across the U.S. to Washington, D.C. to call attention to the plight of Native Americans. He also spearheaded the movement on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota in 1973 to oust the corrupt government-appointed chairman. These activities led to the occupation of Wounded Knee and a siege of 71 days, which received national attention. Banks was the principal negotiator and leader of the Wounded Knee forces. During his time in California from 1976 to 1983, Banks earned an associate's degree from the University of California, Davis and taught at Deganawida Quetzecoatl University (DQU), a Native American-controlled institute of alternative higher learning, where he became the first American Indian chancellor. He also established the first spiritual run from Davis to Los Angeles in 1978, which is now an annual event. During 1987, grave robbers in Uniontown, Kentucky were halted in their digging for artifacts in American Indian grave sites. Banks was called in to organize the reburial ceremonies. His activities resulted in Kentucky and Indiana passing strict legislation against grave desecration.
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
Interesting Facts
Mr. Banks has had roles in the movies War Party, The Last of the Mohicans, and Thunderheart. The musical release Still Strong, featuring Banks' original work as well as traditional Native American songs, was completed in 1993. He can also be heard on other albums: Peter Gabriel's Les Musiques du Monde, Peter Matthiessen's No Boundaries.
