Dear Humanities Kids,
1.REMEMBER that your "FIVE PILLARS" assignment is due on WEDNESDAY!
2. You were also given an article entitled "Afghan Women and the Return of the Taliban," and asked to annotate/notate using only RED. Please include 5-7 questions/page!





3. We responded to Journal #15 entitled "Ground Zero Mosque"
'" In a stirring defense of the proposed mosque and Muslim community center near Ground Zero, Obama declared last week that Muslims "have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country." Polls show nearly 70% of Americans oppose construction of the mosque, and that efforts to block other mosques have sprung up from California to Connetticutt." As we have studied Islam, let's write about our feelings concerning this debate.
