Antebellum Culture Readings & Checkpoints

Over the course of the unit, we will be going through different sections of the textbook in class. Whenever we start a reading, the questions will be due the next day and there will be a reading checkpoint made available after school for homework (unless there are other instructions). The Google Forms online correspond to a specific topic/lesson in the textbook.

Abolitionism and Compromise

In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson had written that β€œall men are created equal.” Yet many Americans, including Jefferson himself, did not believe that this statement applied to enslaved African Americans. A growing number of reformers began to think differently.

Reform and Women's Rights

The period between 1815 and 1860 in the United States is sometimes called the Era of Reform because there were so many movements for social reform during this period. Reformers fought to end slavery, increase access to education, improve conditions in prisons, expand women’s rights, and more.
