Slave Journals

For tomorrow (2/7), we will be writing slave journals. Here is the information that the students need to use to create their journals.

Creating a Slave Journal

You will write three entries in a journal from the perspective of a slave living in the mid-1800s.
Your entries should describe how a slave might have faced slavery and discrimination.

Entry 1: On this first page, describe yourself and your living and working conditions. Include:
• a date and location, such as November 4, 1853, Johnson Plantation, South Carolina.
• your name, age, and a brief a description of your family.
• a description of your living conditions.
• a description of a typical workday and your working conditions.
• an illustration.

Entry 2: On the second page, describe a way in which you have resisted slavery. Include:
• a date and location.
• a description of your quiet or open act of rebellion.
• an illustration.

Entry 3: On the third page, describe ways in which you and other slaves maintain a strong
sense of community. Include:
• a description of your favorite leisure time activity.
• a description of a church meeting.
• an illustration.
