Les services culturels de l’Ambassade des Etats-Unis proposent une rencontre avec l’auteure Gail Milissa Grant, dont le premier ouvrage, At the Elbows of my Elders, a obtenu le Prix Benjamin Franklin et retrace la lutte d'une famille afro-américaine de Saint Louis pour les droits civiques aux Etats-Unis.

Nous accueillerons Gail Grant jeudi 28 février de 15h30 à 17h30 en salle I2-213.
Cette rencontre est ouverte à tous les étudiants de Licence et de Master.
Gail Grant présentera un pan de l’histoire afro-américaine plus méconnu : le mouvement pour les droits civiques qui précède l’arrivée de Martin Luther King, dans les années 30 et 40, mouvement qui a organisé la toute première Marche sur Washington en 1941. De nombreuses archives photographiques seront présentées. L'intervention sera exclusivement en anglais et les étudiants seront invités a poser des questions à l’issue de la présentation.

Attila the Stockbroker - Tyler Smiles - YouTube
Wat Tyler was a leader of the peasants' revolt against taxes in the 14th Century.
In the 1980s, when there was a mass movement against the Poll Tax proposed by Margaret Thatcher, the singer Attila the Stockbroker wrote this song, where he imagines Tyler being happy to see another revolt against an unjust tax.

M1 enseignement rappel des fondamentaux
You will find below your marks for the module "rappel des fondamentaux". They are made up, half and half, of the two marks from the two classroom tests.
The main weakness in the essay part is that many students did not distinguish between 1) British public opinion 2) the British government and 3) different organized minorities.
Remember the basic fact of studying British civilization: almost all sentences beginning "British people thought" are not useful, because you need to say which British people. This is particularly true of controversial questions. When Enoch Powell made his speech in 1968, *some* British people supported him - some dockers and civil servants even went on strike to support him, which is extremely rare on this kind of question. Other British people thought he was quite wrong. We don't have precise measures, but if the Prime Minister felt it necessary to sack him, it is a fairly good sign that the Prime minister thought a *lot* of votes could be lost by not sacking him.
Concerning the scripts for this exam, I will keep them in my office and you can have them back. Having said that, the scripts for the commentaire are much more important. My comments on the rappel des fondamentaux exam are along the lines of "No, it was a century before" and so on, which are not very enlightening. But on the Commentaire scripts there are many annotations which you need to spend hours studying.
