Hello class, today we will be discussing one of the most important pieces of history in our country’s journey towards equality. The Gospel Underground Railroad. Now, you might have studied this topic before, but today we will be diving deep into its significance and how it helped people.
Before we begin, let's familiarize ourselves with some new vocabulary associated with this topic. Please take this handout with definitions.
Now, let's discuss the Gospel Underground Railroad. The Gospel Underground Railroad was a series of safe houses and meeting places that enslaved Black people used to escape from the South. They would travel along a secret network of routes and people who would help them along the way until they reach Canada.
Now, let's split into groups and discuss why the Gospel Underground Railroad was important for enslaved people seeking freedom. Please take 10 minutes to discuss this question with your group members.
Great discussion, everyone! Now, let's fill out these printable cards to summarize what we've learned about the Gospel Underground Railroad. Please take 5 minutes to fill it out individually.
Thank you for filling out the cards. Now, please pass them forward as I collect them.
For your homework tonight, please read about the significance of Gospel Underground Railroad and write a one-page essay on why it was important to enslaved people seeking freedom. Please note that homework will be checked without asking any students to present it in front of the class.
And there we have it, folks. Thank you for your attentiveness and inquisitive discussions. Have a great day.
