Thinking like a Historian

Today we will examine the Battle of Lexington.  We will examine the testimony of two primary sources, as well as the textbook to attempt to put together the story of the "shot heard 'round the world".

After examining this, we will take a look at the Michael Brown case in Ferguson, Missouri- the idea is to use the skills we learned to find out what really happened in Ferguson, Missouri.

Link to case documents:  Michael Brown Case

We will concentrate on the testimony of Dorian Johnson (eyewitness account) and Officer Wilson, the policeman involved in the shooting.
