Through completing this assignment, I learned about the literature Frederick Douglass and Harriet Beecher Stowe used to impact the abolitionist movement. This assignment taught me reading, understanding a text, and working together is very important. I enjoyed this assignment because the questions were purely based on the text so you did not have to think further than the information provided. This assignment challenged me to work as a group and answer questions as a group. If I had to complete this assignment again, I would improve it by working more with my group and explaining evidence more.
