Description
In this lesson, students read and analyze paragraphs 7 and 8 of “A Genetics of Justice” in which Alvarez goes into specific detail about Trujillo’s megalomania and vanity as described by her mother. Students first read and discuss Mark Memmott’s article “Remembering To Never Forget” to deepen their understanding of Rafael Trujillo. Students analyze how each text uses details to develop ideas around Trujillo to ascertain how the subject is approached across two different mediums.
