It's important not to sugar coat the event so that students can understand the severity and truly empathize with those who suffered. ]]> 2022-11-17 22:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034526 Teaching Slavery https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034555 I would approch the topic by utilizing authors and perspectives from people who had first hand experiences or who could speak from a relevant cultural background in my lessons.]]> 2022-11-17 22:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034555 I would teach slavery as truthfully as possible; slavery is an ancient institution, often simply a result of war. "We beat you. You are our slaves now. You probably would have done the same." American slavery is different, however, due to the addition of race-based class system. Once Europeans racialized slavery, making it only targeted towards Africans, things became far, far worse, with consequences lasting to this day with racism, institutional or otherwise. https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034691 2022-11-17 22:07:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034691 https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034805 I think slavery must be taught intertwined in all of America’s and the World’s history, because in every instance of discussing a major historical event, the utilization, transportation, or brutalization of slaves is always occurring in the background or possibly the foreground. Especially in US history, creating an image of slavery that isn’t seperate but intertwined with other historical events or movements throughout our nations history. ]]> 2022-11-17 22:07:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389034805 Africans sold captive Africans to Europeans. They were brought to America where they remained as slaves for a long time.

I intend to answer children’s questions as truthfully and compassionately as possible, and I also aspire to generate true empathy in the classroom for individuals who were enslaved.]]> 2022-11-17 22:08:50 UTC https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389035557 https://padlet.com/sophiamodugno/7pb05d01qo2prvx6/wish/2389036367 I would include first hand experiences and I would be truthful when teaching it.
