Discuss ideas about women’s involvement in the abolitionist movement and how their participation helped expose them to ideas about women’s rights. Which women were involved (think about race, class etc.) what were their motivations and what did people think of them being so active. Use the two paragraphs from the website that I provided and be sure to read the document The Declaration of Sentiments. http://utc.iath.virginia.edu/abolitn/wmhp.html What are some of the issues they are protesting?
You have your classmates as partners in analyzing all of these things and this is what these discussions are for. If you are unsure about some things you can include questions in your discussion. You don’t need to feel like you understand or know everything right away but by communicating with your classmates, you can help each other clarify things and come up with ideas.
