Quiz has three sections. I'll grade it on a 20-point scale. It will count as part of your grade in the Exercises category. This is a closed-book quiz. Please do not use textbook or notes. Time limit: 30 minutes 1) Describe the context of the speech--the speaking situation in which Douglass found himself. Who? What? When? Where? Why?
2) What is the speaker's thesis? That is, what is the most important thing he wants us to understand?
3) Describe the line of reasoning he uses to support his thesis. What arguments does he construct?
