The North Star was one of the most influential anti-slavery newspapers in the United States. Founded by Frederick Douglas in 1843, The North Star helped spread abolitionist beliefs and also championed the rights of women.
Your assignment is to create an article for the The North Star that describes the evils of slavery. Your audience already believes that slavery should end in the United States, so your task is to be as descriptive as possible to try and motivate your readers to take action. Your Investigative Reporting of the South handout is going to provide you with the evidence and details to support your article and the Power of Persuasion handout from class today to help you organize your article.
Enjoy your weekend,
Mr. Mullady
