Abolitionist Movement and The Second Great Awakening Exam Create A study guide that will help me review for my final Final Exam Review
The exam will be CLOSED BOOK: Laura, Brandon, and I will move through the room to make
sure that there are no phones, laptops, or textbooks out.
The exam will cover Weeks 8-14.
You will be given 10 primary sources with questions to answer. Each primary source answer will
be worth 10 points.
There will also be a bonus question related to the last lecture, so there are 110 points possible out
of 100. You cannot be marked down for this answer—you can only get no credit, partial credit,
or full credit. So it is worth trying to offer your best possible answer.
Some of the primary sources come from your assigned reading. Some we have discussed in
class. One of the primary sources will be entirely new. If you study the topics listed below, you
will be prepared to answer all of the questions.
Some exam tips:
•
The primary sources will contain lots of CLUES. Read them carefully because they will
help you answer the questions.
•
Read the questions CAREFULLY. It breaks my heart when a student offers a terrific
answer to a different question—not the one asked on the exam.
•
TAKE YOUR TIME! This is not a race. You have plenty of time (2 hours) to complete
this exam. Spend as much time as you need reading the sources. We have spare paper if
you want to take notes and work out your thoughts.
•
DOUBLE-CHECK your work! You have lots of time—make the most of it. Did you
answer the question being asked? Was your first thought your best thought, or are you
realizing now maybe you wanted to write something slightly different, or change your
answer? You have the time to think this through.
Topics you will want to study to be prepared for the primary sources are:
•
The Whiskey Rebellion and Alexander Hamilton’s role in it
•
The War of 1812 and the alliance between Indigenous people and the British
•
The American Colonization Society and abolitionist protests to it (specifically from the
revised reading from Week 8, David Walker, Appeal to the Colored Citizens of the
World, hyperlinked in Canvas announcements and also linked here)
•
The relationship between the abolitionist movement and the Second Great Awakening
(aka, the Christian revivalism of the 1830s and 1840s)
•
The Gag Rule and women’s participation in the anti-slavery petition campaign of the
1830s
•
Protestant reformers and the temperance movement
•
The Compromise of 1850 and the Fugitive Slave Law
•
Kansas-Nebraska Act and why freesoilers opposed it
•
The Dred Scott ruling and Abraham Lincoln’s response to it (from your primary source
readings)
•
The CSA’s reasons for seceding from the Union
•
Bonus: Indian Wars during the Civil War
