A) Discussion Responses<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please respond to each prompt (roughly 150 words for each will do): <\/strong><\/p>\n

A1) <\/span><\/strong>What does William Byrd’s diary and Richard Frethorne’s Letter tells us about servitude and slavery?  You will have leeway in answering this question, and might consider the conditions that servants and slaves lived in, the manner in which slavery corrupts the slaveowner and his family, how slave owners attempted to maintain order, the larger impact of slavery on southern society, and so on.  As you can see, there are a lot of different ways to approach the diary.  You must cite both sources.  <\/span><\/p>\n
