After coming back from Christmas vacation and trying to make it the Freedom writer’s return to school.
When they return they find out that they have won The Spirit of Anne Frank Award.
The award honors “those who have followed the courage of their convictions to step forward and actively confront anti-semitism, racism, prejudice and bias related violence in their community”(pg 222).
They Freedom writers start a fundraiser so they can go to New York to accept the award.
Many TV shows and magazines called Ms. Gruwell so that they can talk about the Freedom Writers but she denied all of them until Connie Chung called her.
Why didn’t Ms. Gruwell accept the TV and magazines offer to help them get to New York?
Why won’t the board allow all of the freedom writers to accept the award?
What is GUESS??
What did the Freedom writer’s do after high school?
Cavort- to bound or prance about.
Tattoo- a rapid, rhythmic drumming or rapping.
doyen- the senior member of a body or group
In the final term of the senior year the Freedom writers are getting ready for graduation and tell of their success throughout their four years of High school.
