Woods 30 Frederick McKinley Jones 31 David Crosthwait, Jr. 32 Martin Luther King, Jr. and so many many more. Each one is so fascinating and such a good lesson in persistence and self-esteem, working against all odds and education. Hope you had half as much fun as I did, putting together quizzes about inventions and their inventors, accomplishments, and even the UGRR. The lessons on the messages through quilts just was so inspiring for all of us: students and assistants. We all enjoyed doing the lessons. Hope you do, too!
