Interpreting Early National Slavery

Interpreting Early National Slavery

Slavery is surely one of the most troubling aspects of American history.  How could such an institution exist and expand in the Early National United States, if the

nation was founded on a serious commitment to liberty?  Explain how Henry Brown (Doc 40), Harriet Jacobs (Doc 33), Nat Turner (Doc 37), and Osborne P. Anderson (Doc

41) crafted their personal narratives to communicate their experiences as enslaved people in order to denounce slavery. Your carefully crafted three-page essay should

be submitted in hardcopy after lecture on Friday of Week 12.

This assignment requires you to synthesize information from primary sources, secondary sources, as well as from lectures.  Your paper must build on at least one direct

quote from three primary source Docs. In addition, the paper must include one direct quote from the Kolchin reading. All quotes must include an exact page citation so

that a reader can easily locate your selection.  Carefully choose evidence that directly supports your argument.
