We will also examine the role slavery played in Colonial America.

Reading summaries, worth 5 points each, will be graded on the clarity of expression, organization of ideas, thoughtful analysis, written primarily in your own words, and proper citations.
Assignment 2: This week we will watch a video about the Middle Passage, the part of the Triangular Trade which brought Africans from the continent of Africa to the Americas for the institution of slavery.
