I absolutely love how MagiCore is always able to cohesively weave so much background knowledge into an engaging and informative presentation. This resource did a phenomenal job of incorporating important vocabulary as well as information about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandi, Rosa Parks, and Georgia Gilmore through photographs, video, clips, maps, and storybooks as well as storytelling. It was exactly the resource I needed.
