Block 6: Friday
March 24th
Welcome to Unit 5, North, South, and West! This unit will be split up into 3 parts, each focusing on one
of the three major regions of the United States in the early to mid-1800s in the form of a packet. These
packets will develop your ability to:
Read secondary sources for main idea, important details, and key vocabulary
Process information from the readings in the form of creative visual and/or written assignments
Compare and contrast primary sources
Write an evidence-based paragraph that analyzes examples of progress and sacrifice in the North
during this time period.
By the end of this unit, you will be able to write a five-paragraph evidence-based essay that answers our
essential unit questions, How did changes in America in the early and mid-1800s represent both
PROGRESS and SACRIFICE? Was the progress WORTH the sacrifice?

Source Comparison
DIRECTIONS: Read the two following sources on womens rights and ANNOTATE for TOPIC (What are
they talking about) and TONE (How does each source discuss the topic? What is the mood?). Then
complete the graphic organizer on the next page to compare and contrast each issue.
Source #1: Declaration of Rights and Sentiments (1848); Written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton to be read aloud
and adopted by the Seneca Falls Convention
We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men and women are created equal; that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
The history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward woman,
having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a
candid world.
He has never permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise [vote].
He has compelled her to submit to laws, in the formation of which she had no voice.
He has withheld from her rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded menboth natives and
foreigners.
He has taken from her all right in property, even to the wages she earns
Now, in view of this entire disfranchisement of one-half the people of this country, their social and religious
degradation,in view of the unjust laws above mentioned, and because women do feel themselves aggrieved,
oppressed, and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights, we insist that they have immediate admission to all
the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of these United States.
Source #2: Aint I a Woman? (1851); Speech by Sojourner Truth, Delivered at the 1851 Women's Convention
in Akron, Ohio
Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter. I think that 'twixt the negroes
of the South and the women at the North, all talking about rights, the white men will be in a fix pretty soon. But
what's all this here talking about?
That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best
place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't
I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could
head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the
lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I
cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?
Then that little man in black there, he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause Christ wasn't a woman!
Where did your Christ come from? Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing
to do with Him.
If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women
together ought to be able to turn it back , and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men
better let them.
