Happy Birthday, Dr. King!

*Period 3, no homework due to assembly.

Classwork: We had a hand-off discussion exploring the idea of Agape and how MLK used this when convincing his followers to embrace nonviolence. We then discussed how this idea of Agape could help the people of Verona. Finally, we applied this idea to our own lives, and how we can embrace Agape to become whole people and one with humanity.

Homework: Pretend you are Martin Luther King, Jr. and write a letter to Prince Escalus, giving him advice about how to end the feud between the Montagues and Capulets. Include both reasons based on Agape, and the feuding families' great Philia. 1 page, due tomorrow.
