*+Script+Organizer

**__Trouble getting started with your script?__** Think about how Ken Burns started his documentary with a quote by Oliver Holmes. Then he told a story about a person at the beginning of the movement who also connected to the end of the war. Your visit could be a great resource for introducing your documentary/iMovie. (You could begin your iMovie with a quote you found. A person's story. A connection you have to the movement. Something that stood out from your visit).

**//__How to organize your script for your iMovie.__//**


 * The questions below are meant to guide you, but if you notice your facts or overall topic needs a different direction go ahead and personalize your script __(Let me know if you are going this route).__


 * Feel free to work on this throughout the unit. You should write your notes in a way that answers these questions. We will continue watching documentaries in class to help better understand the tone to write your script.

__**Visit/Interview Report**__ __ **First Part of Script (Intro)** __ Who (what group) you are telling the story about
 * What stood out the most to you during your visit?
 * Why did you choose this topic?
 * What did you learn?
 * What was your ah-ha moment that there was a struggle for equality?
 * Who are they? When did the struggle begin? If possible specify where they lived.
 * What was unjust or unequal?

__ **Second Part of Script** __ The cause of why they struggled
 * Why did they struggle? Why were they treated poorly?
 * Did anyone or any group make them struggle more? (EXTRA)
 * Were any laws passed or did the government do anything that directly hurt the group?
 * How long have they struggled? Examples of how they struggled?
 * Story of how a person experienced this struggle. (EXTRA)

__ **Third Part of Script** __ Response to the group’s situation
 * ​How did the group respond? Did it help?
 * Who spoke up for the group when they struggled?
 * What did this person do?
 * Did people listen? Why?
 * Was this met with resistance from anyone? (EXTRA)

__ **Fourth Part of Script (Conclusion)** __ Current situation of the group
 * How is the group doing now?
 * Are they still struggling in any way?
 * Has their experience improved? Did anyone apologize or were laws passed to help?
 * What is life like for this group now?
 * How is the struggle remembered? (Depending on the social justice movement there may be more than one perspective to this).
