African Experiences in the Saltwater Slavery Book Discussion

 

Please address the following scenario in 300-500 words:

You are going back to your former high school as a visiting instructor to discuss the transatlantic slave trade. Your former high school assigned the book Saltwater Slavery and you’re visiting to discuss it with students in class. To help you prepare for such a visit, list and elaborate 3-5 points that you would want to discuss with students about the book’s effectiveness in highlighting African perspectives on the transatlantic slave trade. Some questions you might want to address include: How does Smallwood humanize African experiences in the book? What sources did she use in crafting her narrative and arguments? To connect better with students, you might think back to what you learned in high school about the transatlantic slave trade, how does the book compare (or contrast) with what you learned previously? What would you want students to take away from your discussion of the book with them?

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Reply to at least two people’s initial posts. Your response could be about something you learned from their post, a point of similarity or agreement, or even a point of contrast with your approach that you found intriguing nonetheless.

student 1 :

None of us will ever truly understand the experiences of slaves mentioned in Saltwater Slavery, we are fortunate enough to live in these times. But, we can still learn about them and give ourselves perspective on the historical impacts and how the transatlantic slave trade changed the world, for some, it was a profitable business, for others, it was a nightmare. There are a few things I would like to talk about and elaborate on today. One being how African slaves were looked at by the rest of the world, they were not seen as human, but as tools and commodities, they were captured whether to be prizes and trophies or to be tools for the benefit of someone from a higher socioeconomic standing. Could you imagine someone looking at you surface-level and pricing you? They didn’t have to imagine, they were cargo, and as such, they were treated as cargo. In chapter 2, Smallwood goes into great detail about how dehumanizing the transatlantic slave trade was. My favorite part about the book is in chapter 4 when Smallwood goes on to how the diaspora of the African people led to the creation of group identity and efforts to keep every possible tradition with them. You have to realize that every single slave was an individual with a life before all of this, they had families and friends with whom they interacted with, but during the slave trade, who did they have other than the people next to them? Other than the people with shared experiences? My last point talking about Saltwater Slavery is how the book makes you personally feel, what do you take away from this? The purpose of this book is to give insight and perspective into what really happened, this is exemplified through the story of Olaudah Equiano and his experience.

student 2 :

I really consider myself to be somewhat of a history fanatic and have been interested in it since I was a child. I took multiple college level history classes in my high school, even one that was specifically about the history of the Americas . Unfortunately all of these classes and teachers chose to skim over the transatlantic slave trade, so I actually learned a lot from the passages that we had to read this week. If I were to teach a high school about the slave trade then I would make sure it goes at least fairly in depth. The first point I would bring up to them is telling them where a large amount of the slaves in the Americas and carribean territoties came from and how they went to a lot more places than just the US colonies.. I feel that the Gold coast is not talked about at all in most history courses, and it is important to know where the slaves were being transported from. The Gold coast has a rich history and it would let students know why certain african tribes and people would trade people away to the portugese and the spainards. I also feel that most people don’t know that slaves went all around the world. We tend to think of only the US colonies but slavery really expanded to all of the new world and some of the old world. The next point I would bring up is how the slaves lived on the ship. The saltwater slavery book does a very good job in giving an account on how slaves were living on these ships. The dark descriptions of life on the ships really humanizes what it was like to be a slave on a ship in the middle of the transatlantic passage. The last point I would like to bring up is the chapter in the book in which the author talk about the mental struggles that these slaves had to go through. We usually only think about the physical toll, not the mental toll, that these human beings had to go through. Adding mental emotion to these things also helps humanize them. I would hope from these points that the students will get a deeper understanding than most people on what really happened during the slave trade.

Is Minimum Wage Enough Essay

 

formulate a thesis/position based on the information you’ve been given. That means looking at the topic from ALL sides and using the research to decide what position is strongest and defendable. Then, like your other essays, you should prewrite to get your ideas together and then outline to plan your structure. However, this is different because you’re going to be using research to defend your points and positions. One thing you need to remember is that this is YOUR essay. The point of the essay is not to just write down what other people have to say and then say, “I agree” or “I disagree.” The point is to write what YOUR position is and then use the research to defend it. Let me introduce you to the “quote sandwich.”

We use “quote sandwich” as a loose term. Imagine that what you have to say is the bread, and the research is the meat (or whatever, if you’re vegetarian). This means that in your body paragraphs (typically, we don’t use research in the introduction, as it’s used to grab attention and introduce the topic/thesis) you should begin with a main idea/topic sentence of your own. Then, in the support, use the research to support that point. But that’s not it. Don’t just assume your audience makes the connection. Use the rest of the paragraph to explain HOW and WHY the research supports your point. Flesh it out. DETAILS.

Also, don’t forget to address the “naysayer.” This means that you have to challenge the opposition. What would they say, and how would you address it. Sometimes, you have to admit that the opposition makes a valid point, but then explain why your argument is better overall. For example, let’s say you believe that marijuana should NOT be legal recreationally; you can still agree that it should be legal for medicinal purposes. Often, the best argument is finding a middle ground.

Irvine Valley College Economic and Political Components of Freedom Discussion

 

I’m studying for my English class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

  1. Begin by comparing, in your own words, the main arguments of Lipsitz and Davis. What do you see as their central claims about music, and how do they compare?
  2. Next, thinking back to Lipsitz’s analysis of the Isley Brothers and Ice Cube, notice how Lipsitz and Davis have very similar approaches to their studies of music. That is, their arguments are different and focus on different genres and time periods, but their methodologies are quite similar. What kinds of sources do Lipsitz and Davis turn to? How do they use other authors’ ideas to form their arguments? What role does historical context play as they establish themes and interpret lyrics?

Theater Question

 

For each prompt (a prompt can be a term, phrase, or concept) given below, please write:

a) The author who wrote about the term/phrase/concept. (You only have to cite ONE author for each concept, but you can definitely cite multiple authors. Citing multiple authors may help you to give a fuller definition of the prompt than only citing one. But you do not have to cite all of the authors who wrote about a particular term.) (0.5 point)

b) The meaning of the term/phrase/concept, as it pertains to the topics covered in this course. (You should plan on writing at least a few sentences to give an adequate definition.) (1 point)

c) A television OR social media example that illustrates the term/phrase/concept. (You only need to write about one example: television show OR episode, OR character, OR plotline from a TV show, OR a block of shows, OR an entire network; a social media platform OR influencer OR a hashtag OR an event or campaign on a platform.). You may give more than one example if you wish but only one is required. Anything that is a serial program (that is, consisting of multiple episodes) on broadcast TV, cable TV, or streaming platforms that you view in your domestic space, like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, HBO Go, CBS All Access, etc., counts as “television.” Feature-length (90-120-minute) programs made exclusively for a streaming platform (e.g., Netflix Originals like “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” or “Always Be My Maybe”) also count as “television” as they were made specifically for domestic viewing. Content (including music videos) made for YouTube or another social media site counts as social media, which you can also use for your examples. (0.5 point)

d) How the television or social media example relates to, and illustrates, the term/phrase/concept. Make sure to refer to at least one idea or argument made by the author (whom you named in part a). (You should plan on writing 1 to 2 paragraphs—6 to 12 sentences at least—to explain how your example relates to the term/phrase/concept.) (2 points)

You must format your answer according to parts a, b, c, and d, like this:

1. (term/phrase/concept)

a. (author’s name)

b. (definition of term/phrase/concept)

c. (name of an example)

d. (how the example relates to the term/phrase/concept)

Points will be deducted for poor spelling, grammar, and/or punctuation (up to 1 point). Points will also be deducted for improper formatting – proper formatting = listing out the different parts of each answer as a., b., c., d. (up to 1 point).

Each four-part response to a prompt is worth up to 4 points total.

  1. model minority
  2. Asian American YouTube performance
