Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

Reading Due Thursday

For Thursday, you will be reading two narratives. One is by Frederick Douglass and is an excerpt from his autobiography, My Bondage, My Freedom and is the red book from pages 426-430. The other is a handout from Harriet Jacob's autobiography, Incidents in the Life of a Slave girl, and will be read on hand out. If you have the Jacobs piece, please read this first and bring to class tomorrow to exchange. If you did not receive a handout today, please read the Douglass piece tonight, so you will be free tomorrow to read the piece by Jacobs.
