204 discussion - Douglass

Last Thursday we had a great discussion on the first two chapters of Douglass' Narrative. We used the SmartBoard in Library 118 to pull up some blog entries and to see if others related to the writers' thoughts. Thelma was a bit resistant ("I didn't know I'd have to show the whole class...") but volunteered to go first anyway. We ended up talking about Toni Morrison's Beloved (great continuum...Douglass to Morrison) and about how we might have acted in Douglass' place. The only light in the room came from the SmartBoard...I wonder not having bright overhead fluorescent lights made it easier for some folks to speak out...?
