Purpose: This unit we have been following, examining, and writing arguments based on a variety of topics. This activity asks you to follow the thesis (argument) of an author from the LHDI, or the Lowcounty Digital History Initiative about enslavement.

Your task: Slavery is not "monolithic." It was carried out differently over time. Using this specific page from the College of Charleston website as a resource, evaluate the author's thesis that the enslavement of Africans / institution of slavery changed over time. Use this graphic organizer to help you follow and analyze the argument

The author's thesis: The legal and social status of these early Africans in the Americas was generally more fluid than what developed in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as New World chattel slavery became more entrenched.
