Tuesday, March 13th


Hi. I'm sorry I can't be there today. As you know from yesterday, I'm quite sick and I need to rest. Please do the following in class today during my absence.
Have the teacher open the IC website and go to the 2nd Intermediate blog. Click the first link entitled African Slave Trade. Enlarge if you need to and one student should read the passage. 
After reading, you need to do the following. Write a summary (2 to 3 paragraphs) about what you know so far about the Atlantic Slave Trade. Then, answer the following questions:
1. Why do you think this terrible practice of selling human beings into slavery lasted so long?
2. If you could meet a slave trader what might you say to him in order to persuade him to stop?
I will check your work when I see you next.
