Harriet Jacob's Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl Lecture 4: What Our Homes Say About Us

How Do Our Homes Reflect Our Values? If a stranger were to walk through your home, what might they learn about your family? If a stranger were to visit your room, what might they learn about you?

Homes Reflecting Reality If you visited slave quarters, what do you think you would see? If you were to visit a wealthy southern slave owner's home, what do you think you would see?

Visiting a Southern Estate In the middle of the 19th century, Natchez, Mississippi was one of the wealthiest towns in America. You will be visiting the historic Melrose House and comparing the homes of rich estate owners to slave quarters.

Comparing Lives Melrose House – notes & comment Slave quarters – notes & comment
