The students discussed that part of
the 5th chapter where some of Earth’s “fighters against the Dark Thing,”
or evil, are named. (Jesus, Leonardo, Gandhi, Buddha, Copernicus, Bach,
etc.)They reflected why these people have been fighters of evil, and
talked about how some of their contributions have changed the world.
The students were asked to name others who might be called fighters of evil and they shared how these people have contributed to the good of the world.
The discussion was taken further and the students were asked to name some people in history who they think have been on the side of evil. The students came up with names like Hitler, ISIS, Taliban, etc.
Then we discussed less prominent ways in which people might contribute to good. (by being kind to others or volunteering for a worthy cause, etc.)
It was a very interesting session and the students enjoyed the fact that we had the class on the lawns instead of the classroom.
