For this assignment, refer to the primary source documents #5 through #9 in Stono: Documenting and Interpreting a Southern Slave Revolt. For these sources, answer these four questions.
1. What is the context of the source? (Refers to who/what/when/where/why aspects of the source. Who created it? What kind of source is it? When was it created? Where? Why or for whom was it written?). Most of this information will come from the introduction at the top of each source. The date of the source is often at the beginning of the source itself.
2. What does the text say?
3. Can you determine any potential bias in the source? What leads you to this conclusion?
4. Who or what does the author blame for the revolt and why?
Please answer these four questions for EACH source. Please make sure to use your own words.
