Thing #20



     I have been using Youtube for a little while now.  It is perfect for history/government teachers because of the amount of historical footage that they have.  I had a Civil Rights project this year and youtube had the Bull Conner speech and footage of the march which drew the ire of the world.  I like the fact that you can easily get the video embeded code just by clicking on the embed button.  If you are collecting videos for a project due now or for future use, you can either put it in a temporary quene, or for long term placement in a play list.
     I chose this video because of its historical signifigance.  This speech was the pivotal moment in the career of Martin Luther King Jr and the pivitol momeent in the Civil Rights movement.
