I. Story of the Mexican Revolution

Use four murals (by any muralist) to create a narrative of the Mexican Revolution. Your narrative can be about one of the following topics: love, class struggle, breaking free from an oppressed system, finding a loved one, losing a good friend, losing a battle.

Make sure that your narrative sticks to the theme of the Revolution, but with your own point of view. Give the characters a name and add dates spanning the Revolution (1910-1920).
Employ different time tenses and rely on the content of the murals (background, color, actions, movements, etc.) to further elaborate your story.

As a refresher, reread Abbott’s article on Narrative and Life, where he tells us that “…narrative is the principal way in which our species organizes its understanding of time (3). And so here you want to organize your own story of the Mexican Revolution with the help of four murals.

Your narrative should be at least two pages long; make it double spaced and add the murals with their respective names.
