After watching Seeds of Destruction and reading the primary sources by Harriet Jacobs and Frederick Douglass, you will write a 500–750-word analytical essay (approx. 2-3 pages). First, develop a historical question that the film and the primary sources raises in your mind. Then, using your best English, write an essay that makes a debatable argument and supports that thesis by presenting and analyzing evidence from the film and the primary sources. Tip: When you read Harriet Jacobs’ narrative, pay attention to the chapter breaks. You are expected to read only chapters 5, 6, and 10. The pages before and after these chapters are not necessary for the course.
