It seems particularly important (and good timing!) to read Douglass's biography and work this week.

Write a summary of his work and ideas in two paragraphs, pulling brief quotes for each.

Next, look at Douglass's work through the lens of Critical Race Theory. See here - https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/critical_race_theory.html

Write two paragraphs of analysis from through this theoretical lens, using the language and questions identified in the link above. Use quotes by Douglass to support your ideas.

These are the text pp. 996-1000, pp. 1066-1069. At least one in-text citation per paragraph (6-7 sentences) from the text.
