Here are the steps you should take to prepare well for the presentation to the Dept of Justice:

1.     Read your article.

2.     Divide the reading in such a way that all have their fair share in the group, or read it together.

3.     Have a dictionary at hand or ask Mr. MacIntyre to explain terms you don’t understand.

4.     Read your share of the reading material, making notes that prove James Earl Ray guilty or innocent of the charges.

5.     You will have time to share your notes and comments with the other groups so as to keep them up to date.

6.     When you are not reading your notes to the other groups, listen to those who are speaking so you can offer points to make a stronger case.
