What is slavery? How did it start? 4 Slavery is depriving someone of their freedom and requiring them to work without pay for you. 4 This illustration was used to help people realize that slavery was wrong.

How did slaves live? 4 They worked from sun rise to sunset 4 They lived in one- room cabins 4 They were never to learn to read

A slave auction 4 They could be sold at any time. 4 They were separated from their families

Overseers could be cruel 4 You could be punished at any time by the overseer without due process. 4 This illustration is from Uncle Tom’s cabin

What did Mr. Lincoln think? 4 "Slavery is founded on the selfishness of man's nature-opposition to it on his love of justice. These principles are in eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow." -- Abraham Lincoln, 16 Oct. 1854, Peoria, Ill., during a debate with Stephen Douglas.

Why were so many abolitionists women? 4 Why do you think women were more sensitive to the issue of slavery and worked to overturn the system of slavery in the United States?

Uncle Tom’s Cabin changed minds 4 Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote a book using her imagination to capture the hearts of Americans. They saw how unjust slavery was.

Harriet’s Book made people think… 4 She used her storytelling to make people see what it would feel like to be a slave.

Sojourner Truth 4 Many people tried to help America abolish slavery. 4 Sojourner Truth was one
