Students discuss the fact and fiction of slavery in the South. After viewing a video on two New Orleans plantations, they determine the accuracy of the facts presented. In the computer lab, they visit various sites and examine which ones have practiced "selective memory." They research and design Web pages to be added to the plantation sites.
