Classwork: The Emancipation Proclamation.
Due: Homework: http://sheg.stanford.edu/emancipation-proclamation
**Please note: information for the following lessons and documents were taken from the Stanford University History Education Group, Reading Like A Historian. http://sheg.stanford.edu/rlh
The Emancipation Proclamation: http://sheg.stanford.edu/emancipation-proclamation
Central Historical Question:
"On January 1, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation freeing three quarters of the slaves in the United States. However, the proclamation only freed those slaves in rebel states. To attain freedom, slaves still had to escape to the Union. Students consider whether Lincoln freed the slaves, or the slaves freed themselves by comparing excerpts from the Emancipation Proclamation and The Life and Times of Frederick Douglass"
