Du Bois United States Senate: Freedmen’s Bureau Acts of 1865 and 1866 Historical Document: Freedmen's Bureau Act JOURNAL TOPIC: (this is not a formal essay but you are encouraged to use the elements of basic essay structure, including citations after quoting [works cited not required]) Choose *one* of the following and write three well-developed and supported paragraphs (use brief quotations from the text): Using specific examples and quotes from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass (Section I and Section VII) and the excerpt from Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs, discuss the complex processes of both humanization and dehumanization that take place in the texts. How are “humanity” and “inhumanity” represented in specific moments, thoughts, and action? What messages are the authors attempting to convey about humankind and the institution of slavery? Using specific examples and quotes from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass (Section I and Section VII) and the excerpt from Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Jacobs, discuss the role of sexism and misogyny in slavery. How is sexism and a disdain for women central to the mechanisms of slavery? In the excerpt from The Souls of Black Folk, W.E.B. Du Bois writes: "The Negro is a sort of seventh son, born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this American world, – a world which yields him no true self-consciousness, but only lets him see himself through the revelation of the other world. It is a peculiar sensation, this double-consciousness, this sense of looking at one’s self through the eyes of others, of measuring one’s soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity.” What is meant by this idea of “double consciousness” as something that “yields … no true self-consciousness”? Why is true self-consciousness impossible while experiencing double consciousness? "On March 3, 1865, Congress passed “An Act to establish a Bureau for the Relief of Freedmen and Refugees” to provide food, shelter, clothing, medical services, and land to displaced Southerners, including newly freed African Americans." In your own words and syntax (sentence structure), explain W.E.B. Du Bois's critique of the Bureau's efficacy over time in the excerpt from The Souls of Black Folk, using short quotations to support your analysis. Also, how does it feel to look at the actual historical document?

Intrоductiоn: The Cоnfuciаn clаssics provide the sophisticаted reader with a wealth of moral teachings and examples. However, they are not well adapted to telling ordinary people how to put those abstract moral principles into practice in their daily lives. With the advent of printing in the Song dynasty (960-1276), writers had an opportunity to rectify this by composing books of moral instruction meant for a mass audience. How is one to achieve merit in this life and (if one holds such beliefs) lay the foundation for a better life next time around? The following document from the 17th century offers advice targeted specifically to various classes of people. Document: From Sources of Chinese Tradition, compiled by Wm. Theodore de Bary and Irene Bloom, 2nd ed., vol. 1 (New York: Columbia University Press, 1999), 911-916. Selections from Meritorious Deeds at No Cost 1.

Make every effort to dissuade the local authorities from doing what would be detrimental to the people of your locality. If people have suffered a grave injustice, expose and correct it. Settle disputes among your neighbors fairly. When villagers commit misdeeds, admonish them boldly and persuade them to desist. Do not let yourself be blinded by emotion and personal prejudice. Be tolerant of the mistakes of others. ... Do not make remarks about women’s sexiness.

Instruct the common people in the virtues of loyalty and filial piety. Respect the writings of sages and worthies. Be wholehearted in inspiring your students to study. Show respect to paper on which characters are written. Try to improve your speech and behavior. Teach your students also to be mindful of their speech and behavior. Do not neglect your studies without reason. Do not despise others or regard them as unworthy of your instruction. Be patient in educating the younger members of poor families. If you find yourself with smart boys, teach them sincerity, and with children of the rich and noble, teach them decorum and duty.Exhort and admonish the ignorant by lecturing to them on the provisions of the community compact and the public laws. Do not speak or write thoughtlessly of what concerns the women’s quarters. Do not expose the private affairs of others or harbor evil suspicions about them. Do not write bills of divorce or separation. Do not encourage the spread of immoral and lewd novels [by writing, reprinting, expanding, and so on]. Do not call other people names or compose songs making fun of them. Publish morality books in which are compiled things that are useful and beneficial to all. ... 5. Dealers and Merchant Do not deceive ignorant villagers when fixing the price of goods. Do not raise the price of fuel and rice too high. When the poor buy rice, do not give them short measure. Sell only genuine articles. Do not use short measure when selling and long measure when buying. Do not deceitfully serve unclean dishes or leftover food to customers who are unaware of the fact. Do not dispossess or deprive others of their business by devious means. Be fair in your dealings. Treat the young and the aged on the same terms as the able‑bodied. When people come in the middle of the night with an urgent need to buy something, do not refuse them on the ground that it is too cold [for you to get up and serve them]. Pawnshops should lend money at low interest. Give fair value when you exchange silver for copper coins. Especially when changing money for the poor, be generous to them. When a debtor owes you a small sum but is short of money, have mercy and forget about the difference. Do not bring him to bankruptcy and hatred by refusing to come to terms. When the poor want to buy such things as mosquito nets, wadded clothing, and quilts, have pity on them and reduce the price. Do not refuse to come to terms. ...
