Track Description
This track may be used as a stand-alone track for gaining perspective on a small, southern community. It may also be used to gain an understanding of the community that produced the now famous "Gee's Bend Quilts." My students use it dually as part of a unit on southern history as well as the predecessor to a study of the artistic nature of the quilts from Gee's Bend.
