Reference no: EM133373080

Question: In the 1930s, members of the Federal Writers' Project, a branch of the WPA, began to record the narratives of African-Americans who had been enslaved in the United States before and during the Civil War. The goal was to gather and preserve an oral history of slavery told in the words of the former slaves themselves. The file posted to this module contains the transcripts of oral narratives of former slaves from Ohio. Examine ways in which the narratives of Frederick Douglass, Hannah Davidson (pp. 26-32) and/or that of Perry Sid Jennison (pp. 50-54) reflect a shared experience. In your view, are there significant ways in which the accounts differ? Be specific.

Is there evidence in these narratives that could be used to support the initiative to give descendants of former slaves monetary or other forms of compensation for the years their family member(s) spent in slavery? Explain. Include a response to the opposing view. Whar are specific evidence from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass and one or more of the Ohio slave narratives* to support and illustrate your points. By now you should recognize the need to quote and discuss the significance of specific words and/or lines as part of your evidence.
