Instructional Activities 1. Explain to students that in the 1830s and 1840s, abolitionists became increasingly outspoken about ending slavery. Abolitionists argued that slavery was morally wrong, cruel, and inhumane and that it was a violation of democratic principles. Active abolitionists were a minority in the north. Their attempts to end slavery were sometimes met with violence — e.g., William Lloyd Garrison was dragged through the streets of Boston. Abolitionists gave lectures, distributed pamphlets, and petitioned Congress in their attempts to end slavery. 2. Assign an abolitionist, such as Harriet Tubman, William Lloyd Garrison, Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, or Angelina and Sarah Grimke, to pairs or larger groups of students. Have students use their textbooks, library resources, and/or Internet sites to research biographical information about their assigned abolitionist. Helpful Web sites on these individuals are listed in the Sample Resources section for this organizing topic. 3. After students have completed their research, have them compose a eulogy to commemorate their assigned abolitionist. Each eulogy should contain the following elements:
You may wish to present these elements in worksheet format so that students will have a structure to guide them in their writing. 4. Ask one student from each pair or group to present the group’s eulogy to the class. Encourage students to read their eulogies in a dramatic and emotional manner. 5. Review the material with students. List the names of the researched abolitionists on the board, and have students provide information they remember from the various eulogies. Session 2: Varying Opinions about the Abolitionist Movement Materials
Instructional Activities 1. Emphasize to students that abolitionists varied in their approach to ending slavery. Some wished to use moral persuasion, others wanted to work through political channels, and still others wished to use violence. Draw the continuum pictured below on the board or on an overhead transparency. Explain the purpose of a continuum. CONTINUUM OF ABOLITIONIST IDEAS
