Dear seniors,

As we begin our study of Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, there are a variety of important ancillary resources I would like for you to read and be able to discuss within the historical context of the 19th century.

It is my expectation that you not only come to class having read the assigned chapters, but also that you are doing research on Frederick Douglass OUTSIDE of class without direction from me. This is what is expected when you attend a top college or university.

I look forward to your insights, comments, and questions!

Kind Regards,

Mr. Coey
