10/13 and 10/14

Today in class:

• We read an excerpt from Aunt Phyllis' Cabin, an example of Anti-Tom literature from 1852. http://utc.iath.virginia.edu/proslav/prfimhea2t.html
• We discussed and articulated in our notebooks the proslavery arguments that Mary Easton makes in the reading.
• We began thinking about how Douglass counters the pro-slavery argument in his Narrative.
