In this activity, students will analyze primary sources and evaluate the degree to which they demonstrate Civil Rights advances following President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's 1941 Executive Order providing equal opportunity in defense industries, and the subsequent establishment of the Fair Employment Practices Commission (FEPC). Students will place documents on a scale according to their weight as evidence of advancement or ineffectiveness of the FEPC. They will then formulate their own position on the effectiveness of the executive order and commission, and write out their reasoning and evidence for their formulated positions.
