Thursday, October 25

Students took the quiz over Chapters VII - X of Frederick Douglass's Narrative, and we corrected it together in class.

We listened to a story from last Saturday's NPR Weekend Edition about excavations at Wye House Farm in Maryland, featuring descendants of Frederick Douglass's fellow slaves and descendants of the masters, then discussed the story.

HW for Friday: a summary of exactly 97 words of excerpts from George Fitzhugh's The Blessings of Slavery (handout).
