Bell Ringer: Journal 18 - Using page 95 - Assuming that Carretta is correct, and Equine was not born in Africa, why do you think he composed this fictitious narrative of his childhood instead of describing his own childhood in slavery?
Agenda:
1. Bell Ringer (10 min)
2. Discuss Journal 18
3. Review "Thinking Like a Historian 3" and collect
4. View the following sources regarding the "Middle Passage" http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aia/part1/1p277.html
5. Create a 3-Column Graphic Organizer. Use this to compare the nature of slavery in the Caribbean, the Chesapeake, and South Carolina. This will be worth one classwork grade.
Home Learning: Read pages 102-111 / note: (in reference to p. 103 "the Northern Maritime Economy) There was a loophole in the Navigation Acts that allowed colonial ships to transport goods within the British Empire. This resulted in the construction of a large colonial merchant fleet, which strengthened the colonial economy and became a factor during the Revolutionary era.
Journal 19 - What explains the increasing political autonomy of the colonies in the eighteenth century?
