What educators are saying

This was a great resource to teach about slavery in the United States with my Ethnic Studies class.
This was exceptional. It augmented the direct instruction I gave on slavery in America, and provided facts in a respectful and powerful way.

Description

In this engaging and educational slavery centers activity, students explore 6 different stations focused on the horrors of slavery in the United States. Students learn about the traumatic experiences of auctions, the abolitionist movement to end the system (and the roles of Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, and John Brown), the resistance efforts of Nat Turner, Denmark Vesey, and Gabriel Prosser, intimidation tactics, experiences of an enslaved person in the United States, and the role and experiences of Frederick Douglass. This eye-opening and humbling gallery attempts to create empathy as it engages students on the reality of enslavement in the United States.

This resource is included in my United States Industry and Slavery Unit located here!

Looking to teach the horrors of the Middle Passage? Use this primary-source based activity to learn the realities of this corrupt system.

This resource includes a paper in-class version and a 1:1 Google compatible version to be used in conjunction with Google Classroom. Just follow the included instructions for how to access the Google version, then share the resource through Google or assign via Google Classroom. This will allow students to type directly into the document!

Enjoy!
