Choose one of the following and answer the questions:

1. This week after reading Chapter 9 and the online readings:

Many Americans have formed their mental images of the Old South form the movie of Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind. Was her portrait of the antebellum South accurate? Was the region merely a land of large cotton plantations worked by hundreds mostly contented black slaves? [Please read the question carefully, it does not ask you watch the film in order to take part in the discussion]

Include some reflection after reading "Gouge and Bite" article.

2. The Underground Railroad by Levi Coffin 1850

What is the duty of a citizen? When something, morally questionable or even morally wrong, is sanctioned and even actively supported by the government, where does the duty of the citizen lie? Does the citizen oppose the government outright and thereby jeopardize his livelihood and his family's welfare, or does the good citizen obey the government? Is the answer somewhere in between?
