Birmingham Civil Rights Institute trip

   I learned a lot about the 16th street baptist church in greater detail than what I knew before the field trip. I also learned more about the KKK and the children's march as well. It's much more realistic and springing how bad it was. I felt much more emotional than what I did when I just read from a page in the text book to actually seeing video and all the other things in the museum. It didn't change my perspective on it, just that it was much more upsetting because of what when on and how violent it was. The value of seeing this is person makes it more real and you can connect much more with it instead of just seeing it on a screen or a piece of paper. You can touch and stand where stuff happened and it draws more connection to what is going on and makes you remember better. You can read stuff that happened 50 years ago but you when you get to be there it's a much better experience. I felt that if we wouldn't have had the snow days and had been stressed out that it would have been much more fun and relaxing(as much as it can be with it having the history that it does) but it was a fun trip
