In this video I learned how we started to evolve in the us. This period was called the reformation period. I learned about transcedentalism. Im learned about soujourner truth and fredrick douglas who faught for what was right in the time before the civil war. I also learned on how Dorthea Dix establisted an asylum for the mentally ill where they were treated good like real people and not like they were used to be treated.
I Learned...
- art and literature growing as America expands.
-romanticism-culture movement, from europe, mid 1820s, sensation be excited, painters paint beautiful paintings exciting.
-transcendentalism- David- ability of nature to inspire us humans, take a walk out in wild, consider what nature brought us. romantics.
- utopian communities fail because not practical
- The crusade against drunkards. sign pledge not to drink
- temperance social control
- cut down on social problems, women being abused, and poverty
- William Lloyd Garrison, radical abolitionist, The Liberator, northern people didn't want to hear it
- abolitionist, use Jeffersonian language, stick to the Declaration
- slavery encourage white people to be cruel and evil, basically it was inhumane the way they treated the slaves
- Frederick Douglas spoke to anti-slavery places
- very powerful speeches and he said, "you celebrate on july 4th but i hear the cries of millions.."
- They were property their body and mind not allowed to read or write
- DOuglas was upset about whipping and labor but also the fact that they couldnt't learn
- women listened and fought against slavery
- women speak out to large audiences
- Sarah taught them to read
- they had slaves
- eliabeth cady stanton go to abolitionist meeting and she was confined to lady's section, she and lucretia mott say that they have to do something about this
- slavery and womens right two issues
- mrs. truth speech about how the women and the'r feelings against slavery were mutual
- declaration of sentiments call for equality of men and women
Main Ideas:
Sojourner Truth's speech was so potent and her message was so clear and powerful. She said how she know's how women (white) feel when they are being deprived of their rights and how men say that women are suppose to be picked up by a man if there is a puddle or be escorted out of a carriage. Sojourner says women who are black don't get treated like that. She was tying together the issue of women's rights and slavery. Another great speak was Mr. Douglas who was a former slave who escaped and fought against slavery. In his speech at a meeting he said something like this: "You all celebrate on July 4th but I hear the cries of millions..." He was of course referring to the slaves and how we declared our independence on this day. Douglas also emphasized how yes it was wrong the slaves were being forced to do labor and were whipped but they were also deprived in their mind. Slaves were not allowed to learn (read or write) and this is what DOuglas didn't like.
are you collecting the chap. 16 outline???
