Why teach Mississippi Burning?
The Mississippi Burning quiz invites students to debate justice, federal power, and civic courage in the heart of the 1964 Freedom Summer murders. Students trace evidence of systemic racism that social‑studies textbooks often summarize only briefly. Rich discussion emerges around investigative ethics, witness intimidation, and the role of the FBI in civil‑rights history. Everything lives in Google Slides, so you can assign digitally or print compact handouts.
