It has been a distinct pleasure introducing you to the “tip of the iceberg” of US history up to the Civil war. Use all of the social science skills you have learned in this course for both completing the final exam and in your future. Follow the directions for writing a Social Science essay. Incorporate Taking Sides, lecture, text and documentaries into your response to support your thesis. Be creative when taking a position and avoid 1st person, using quotes as a source of authority, and broad based generalized statements. The final exam for this course consists of your ability to response to a question associated with validity of a statement made by Fredrick Douglas in relationship to the American Civil War.

Directions:

You MUST follow the required social science essay writing directions for this course. Essays that are focused on addressing the question and contain analysis that is supported by specific examples will earn the most points. Essay responses that contain a strong BECAUSE thesis and are supported by at least 3 subtopics that are carried through the body and lead to a rational conclusion will earn the highest scores. Essays that do not follow the social science methodology, are vague, or awkwardly address the question, will not receive significant points.

FINAL QUESTION:

“The cry of Free Men was raised, not for the extension of liberty to the black man, but for the protection of the liberty of the white.” –Assess the validity of Frederick Douglass’s statement with regard to the cause of The Civil War.
