Problem:
1. There were two civil wars happening in our nation simultaneously. One is referred to as "the other civil war." What war was this? Explain, using detail from the chapter in A People's History. Why do you think we often don't hear about this "war"? 2. Using the posted film clips and weekly required reading, what were the causes of the Civil War between the North and South? Was the north entirely against slavery, or were there other motivating factors? Explain. 3. Describe slavery, using specific detail from the posted films and from the reading. What type of physical, emotional, psychological, and sexual violence did men and women face?
