Abstract: "Come and experience the historical environment of those who have experienced a lifetime of struggle and unrequited hope. Let the Fredrick Douglass Papers (1854), The Daily Georgian (1839), and other early American newspapers take you on a journey to relive the most controversial issues in U.S. history, U.S. society, slavery. [Read the timely article in the MASSACHUSSETTS CENTINEL (1788)on] who is fit to be the president of the United States.”
Dr. Charmayne Patterson Comments: The Caads Exhibit “The Coverage of Slavery in Early American Newspapers” was an invaluable resource for my African American History Course. As we studied the life and work of Frederick Douglass and other abolitionists, having access to antislavery newspapers and other documents from the era enhanced students’ understanding of both the period and its personalities. Through the exhibit, slavery was no longer theoretical and abstract but real and personal. Thanks to the Center for African and African Diaspora Studies for helping students to make that connection and bring African American history to life! |
