Hi everybody!!!

Here are the links to the assignments that we are covering, in order, for the next few days.

Due Monday
"Daisy Miller: A Study" By Henry James

Due Tuesday:
"A Sweatshop Romance" By Abraham Cahan

Due Wednesday:
"The Atalanta Exposition Address" By Booker T. Washington

Due Thursday:
"On Our Spiritual Strivings" from The Souls of Black Folk by W.E.B. DuBois

Due Friday:
Bring various Negro Spirituals to class (print out the Lyrics and websites where we can listen to them). We will rewrite them to see how they change in meaning, tone, etc. What makes these, even in their heightened symbolism, realistic?
