Today is the 49th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s death.
Remembering Martin Luther King, Jr.
“Let us march on poverty (Let us march) until no American parent has to skip a meal so that their children may eat. (Yes, sir) March on poverty (Let us march) until no starved man walks the streets of our cities and towns (Yes, sir) in search of jobs that do not exist. (Yes, sir) Let us march on poverty (Let us march) until wrinkled stomachs in Mississippi are filled, (That’s right) and the idle industries of Appalachia are realized and revitalized, and broken lives in sweltering ghettos are mended and remolded.”

Bean Trees Sparknotes Summaries of all chapters
It looks like some of you might not ever finish this novel. If that's the case, be sure that you read the most important chapters and at least read the Sparknotes summaries of the other chapters.
Must read: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 12, 13, 16, 17
Could skip, I guess: 6, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15
You won't get an "A" on the test if you only read summaries of those chapters, but you could probably get a C+ and maybe even a B-
