Essay: Take a Stand on Slavery Introduction In the 1820s, 1830, and 1840s, the Second Great Awakening helped to inspire a reformist impulse across the nation. As History in the Making points out, one of those movements centered on an effort to abolish slavery in the United States; of course, the desire to eliminate slavery did not go unchallenged. In this activity, you will examine the views of antislavery (abolitionist) and proslavery writers in the antebellum years. This essay will help you better understand a controversy that permeated American life in the years leading up to the Civil War. (Meets Course Learning Objectives: 1, 8, 15, and 16) Primary Sources Read the following pro- and anti-slavery documents Pro-Slavery George Fitzhugh Advocates Slavery Diseases and Peculiarities of the Negro Race James Henry Hammond Advocates Slavery Excerpts from Edmund Ruffin's, "The Political Economy of Slavery" Abolitionists David Walker’s Appeal Frederick Douglass, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” The American Antislavery Society: Declaration of Sentiments Directions Part 1: Essay Focus Questions: What stereotypes do these documents promote about African-Americans? How do these men justify slavery? Or what points do they make about the need to abolish slavery? Should the emancipated slaves remain "on-soil," that is, in the United States? How do these men envision civilized society and slavery's place in it? What remarks do the abolitionists make about the conditions under which the slaves worked and lived? The pro-slavery writers? What are your impressions about the attitudes these men had about slavery, whether they were slavery proponents or abolitionists? In what ways are the arguments of these men reflective of racial prejudice? Format: For your essay, you must read the primary sources listed above and examine the descriptions of, and defense or attack of slavery offered in the documents. After selecting one side of the debate, you must write a two to three page essay (between 500 and 750 words) that addresses the focus questions.

The History of Reconstruction Background: Many Americans like to imagine the history of their nation as one of continual progress. While acknowledging that not all persons and groups enjoyed equal rights at all times, Americans often take it for granted that American history moves in only one direction: toward greater rights, greater freedom, and greater equality. This perspective makes it difficult for many Americans to understand the Reconstruction period and to place it in a broader historical narrative. The problem they face is that African Americans from roughly 1867 to 1875 enjoyed far more political influence and equal rights than they ever had before, or ever would again until the end of the modern Civil Rights Movement almost a century later. The fact that a group could be stripped of rights it once enjoyed is difficult for many Americans to accept, and so they often retreat into a false narrative, in which African Americans never gained any rights at all, and were abandoned to their fate as soon as slavery ended. In this model, the infamous Black Codes—which were in effect for less than a year—take center stage, and the various gains of Reconstruction get ignored.

Assignment 1 ecree Please note that ecree works best in Firefox and Chrome. Please do not use Internet Explorer or mobile devices when using ecree. Assignment 1: Dealing with Diversity in America from Reconstruction through the 1920s Due Week 3 and worth 120 points After the Civil War, the United States had to recover from war, handle western expansion, and grapple with very new economic forms. However, its greatest issues would revolve around the legacies of slavery and increasing diversity in the decades after the Civil War. In the South, former slaves now had freedom and new opportunities but, despite the Reconstruction period, faced old prejudices and rapidly forming new barriers. Immigrants from Europe and Asia came in large numbers but then faced political and social restrictions. Women continued to seek rights. Yet, on the whole, America became increasingly diverse by the 1920s. Consider developments, policies, and laws in that period from 1865 to the 1920s. Examine the statement below and drawing from provided sources, present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position. Statement—in which you can take a pro or con position: Political policies and movements in the period from 1865 to the 1920s generally promoted diversity and “the melting pot” despite the strong prejudices of a few. (or you can take the position that they did not). Use specific examples of policies or movements from different decades to support your position. After giving general consideration to your readings so far and any general research, select one of the positions above as your position—your thesis. (Sometimes after doing more thorough research, you might choose the reverse position. This happens with critical thinking and inquiry. Your final paper might end up taking a different position than you originally envisioned.) Organize your paper as follows, handling these issues: The position you choose —or something close to it—will be the thesis statement in your opening paragraph.To support your position, use three (3) specific examples from different decades between 1865 and 1930. You may narrowly focus on race or gender or immigrant status, or you may use examples relevant to all categories.Explain why the opposing view is weak in comparison to yours.Consider your life today: In what way does the history you have shown shape or impact issues in your workplace or desired profession? Length: The paper should be 500-to-750 words in length. Research and References: You must use a MINIMUM of three sources; the Schultz textbook must be one of them. Your other two sources should be drawn from the list provided below. This is guided research, not open-ended Googling. Source list for Assignment 1: Some sources are “primary” sources from the time period being studied. Some sources below can be accessed via direct link or through the primary sources links on Blackboard. Each week has a differen.

M I D T E R M E X A M ENGL 447 SPRING 2015 This midterm is designed to gage your skills at textual analysis and argumentation, as well as your familiarity with the cultural and literary history of slavery we have explored in class thus far. Together, the two parts of the exam challenge your abilities to critically assess the “big picture,” the “little picture,” and their relation to each other – the little picture being your analysis and close readings of particular passages or elements of the text(s), and the big picture being your larger claims about slavery and slave narratives. Your exam should be typed, double-spaced, clearly labeled and stapled, and is due at the start of class on T h u r s d a y , M a r c h 5 . I. C L O S E R E A D I N G (35 points) Select o n e o f t h e t h r e e passages below to analyze carefully. Your close reading should be between 1 ½ - 2 p a g e s typed, double-spaced. Identify the author and text quickly, and then explain its significance to the text as a whole. first ID the author and text title, and quickly ID what is happening in the passage. Then, provide a close reading that makes an argument about how the passage functions, analyzing how and why this passage is important to the text as a whole. Your aim is to demonstrate your familiarity with the particular text at hand and its relationship to slavery and pertinent course concepts. contexts of the course, and your skills at close reading. Support your claim about the relationship between passage and text by identifying and analyzing key elements of the passage. How do specific features of the selected passage – language, rhetorical strategies, symbolism, imagery, tone, irony, etc. – contribute to its meaning(s) and to the larger cause of abolition? Certainly, you may (should, even) reference other parts of the text not quoted below, but your primary focus should be on close reading of the passage you select. 1. The gentleman said my master could obtain the very best advice in Philadelphia. Which turned out to be quite correct, though he did not receive it from physicians, but from kind abolitionists who understood his case much better. The gentleman also said, “I reckon your master’s father hasn’t any more such faithful and smart boys as you.” “O, yes, sir, he has,” I replied, “lots on ’em.” Which was literally true. This seemed all he wished to know. He thanked me, gave me a ten-cent piece, and requested me to be attentive to my good master. I promised that I would do so, and have ever since endeavoured to keep my pledge. 2. “We all sympathize with you in your unfortunate condition, and are ready to do all in our power to make you contented and happy. . . . You have it in your power to be reinstated in our affections. . . . You know that . . . you were never treated as a slave. You were never put to hard work, nor exposed to field labor.

In the wake of the terrorist attacks in September 2001, the 9/11 Commission recommended that the U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) find a way to improve information sharing of terrorism-related intelligence at all three levels of government (local, state, and federal). The USIC’s answer to this recommendation was the creation of intelligence fusion centers . Since the creation of these intelligence fusion centers, there has been much controversy because of the large amounts of personal information secretly collected and shared within the U.S. intelligence and law enforcement communities. In addition, some critics argue that in the years since their creation, fusion centers and the law enforcement entities affiliated with them have moved away from their original purpose and instead have utilized federal grants and resources to fight local crime. Assignment Guidelines In 5–6 paragraphs, address the following: In your opinion, how effective are U.S. fusion centers? Explain. Do you feel that the creation of fusion centers has improved information sharing of terrorism-related information at all three levels of government? Why or why not? Do you feel that fusion centers have ultimately moved away from their intended purpose? Why or why not? Are fusion centers now being used as a local law enforcement tool to help fight local crime? Why or why not? Post a new topic to the Discussion Board that contains your responses to the above questions. Comment on at least 2 other students' posts. .

In the United States, managed care is becoming an increasingly popular method of administering healthcare. It influences the clinical behavior of providers, as it combines the payment and delivery of healthcare into a single system, the purpose of which is to control the cost, quality, and access of healthcare services for a single bracket of health plan enrollees (Scutchfield, Lee, & Patton, 1997). Yet, managed care often evokes strong or negative reactions from healthcare providers because they are paid a fixed amount for treating their patients, regardless of the actual cost, which may influence their level of efficiency. This can challenge the relationships between doctors and patients (Claxton, Rae, Panchal, Damico, & Lundy, 2012; Sekhri, 2000). Research managed care's inception and study some examples. Be sure to investigate the perspectives about managed care from the vantage of both healthcare providers and patients. You can use the following keywords for your research—United States managed care, history of managed care, and managed care timeline. Based on your research, answer the following questions in a 8- to 10-page Microsoft Word document: What are the positive and negative aspects of managed care? Analyze the benefits and the risks for both providers and patients, and how providers should choose among managed care contracts. Conclude with your analysis and recommendations for managed care health plans. Your response should include answers to the following questions: Summarize the history of when, how, and why managed care was developed. Define and discuss each type of managed care organization (MCO)—health maintenance organization (HMO), preferred provider organization (PPO), and point of sale (POS). Explain the positive and negative aspects, respectively, of managed care organization from the provider's point of view—a physician and a healthcare facility—and from a patient's point of view. Explain the three types of incentives for providers for efficiency in the delivery of healthcare services. Explain who bears the financial risk—the provider, the patient, or the managed care organization. Offer your recommendations, to accept or decline, for patients considering managed care health plans, with your rationale for each.
