Welcome returning and new students!

We have a busy week ahead.  Here are the highlights:

Monday in class we listened to a piece of audio:  www.npr.org/templates/story/storyphp?storyId=94828368

BEFORE Thursday's seminar read:  Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl  (the entire book)

Seminar Ticket (due in seminar Thursday):   Pick one passage from Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl that deals with some aspect of controlling the bodies of slaves.   You should either type the entire passage, or type a clear citation with a beginning and ending phrase so we may reference your choices.  Then take one paragraph to discuss what you think the passage teaches us about how power operated between slaveholders and slaves.
