- Wm. Lloyd Garrison, 1831
- “We must and shall be free…in spite of you…and woe, woe, will be it to you if we have to obtain our freedom by fighting… I do declare that one good black man can put to death six white men…kill or be killed.”

- CITATIONS:
As we discussed in class, you must follow the academic honesty policies of the university. If you use someone else's IDEAS OR DIRECT QUOTES, you must cite them! For this essay, that means you cite them within the text of what you are writing. As you write along, you will simply refer to the document, source, book, or essay you used.
