Monday: Sudents will continue to examine the judicial system while focusing on Civic Virtue and our responsibilities as citizens of the United States. (Day 2)
Twelve Angry Men takes our classes into the jury room as twelve men deliberate to reach a verdict in a murder trial. Through various tensions between jury members in the room, Twelve Angry Men exposes the ugliness of prejudice and flaws in the American justice system. Each day, students will continue to analyze how objective facts are often colored by personal attitudes and experiences. Ultimately, however, the message is a hopeful one; the jurors vote in favor of the defendant, and justice prevails. (Adapted from Fish Tank Learning)
