I encourage you to use powerpoint slides in your presentation if possible, but it is not necessary. 2

Movie A TIME FOR BURNING This movie makes a passionate statement exploring racism in Omaha in the 1960’s. As you watch this movie, you may be tempted to think this movie is ONLY about that. As such, it clearly is a moving experience. But as you watch this movie, I want you also to consider and evaluate what it suggests about the nature of critical thinking and its necessity in our lives and society.

Movie Discussion (if time available) & Assignment Due on the Last Night of Class Write one page ARGUMENT (complete with a clear claim and strong relevant premises) giving your view what this movie says on the issue of whether and/or how critical thinking is important in your life. 4
