History Question

Make sure the format is correct!!

Along with the Open Stax text section 12.2, our unit on slavery contains readings from two authors, William J. Faulkner and Peter Kolchin. These authors provide different perspectives on slave culture, life, religion and resistance. While Kolchin’s work is scholarly, the excerpts from Faulkner come from the book The Days When the Animals Talked. This is an amazing book of folklore; I have provided a helpful review of Faulkner’s book from Amazon.com to give you a sense of his work:

By

Andre M. “brnn64” (http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/AYPCUQS6ARWFH/ref=cm_cr_pr_pdp) (Mt. Pleasant, SC United States) –

This review is from: The Days When the Animals Talked: Black American Folktales and How They Came to Be

This is unquestionably hands-down one of the best books ever written on Black American Folklore.

This was where William J. Faulkner (not to be confused with the the Nobel-winning Misssissippian author of the same name) recalled the tales told to him as a child by an ex-slave handyman named Simon Brown in rural South Carolina circa 1900 when the author was about 10 years old.

The title and cover may give you the impression that this is a children’s book. It’s not. Simon Brown’s recollections of slavery (the first half of the book) are often quite raw and similar to the kind of tales told by ex-slaves in the WPA Slave narratives of the 1930s, in regards to beatings, concubinage, and other atrocities. He also delights in telling young Faulkner some tall tales and stories about the religious and social practices of slaves. This is best for about teen age to adults. Faulkner also puts the Brer Rabbit and other animal tales (the second half of the book in the context of being thinly disguised analogies of slaves overcoming masters). The story about Brer Rabbit and the meeting with the long-tailed animals (not found in any of Harris’ Uncle Remus collections) deserves special attention as one of the most simple and brilliant analogies of racial injustice-this is a great wasy to articulate this subject with children!

Faulkner has done his homework and the tales are recorded in an entertaining style.

As with most educated Black writers of the time (Zora Neale Hurston being an important exception), Faulkner eliminates the dialect Simon Brown would have used as he wanted to discourage the use of dialect among schoolchildren (a stance that would horrify the politically correct utopian thought police of today), but the standard English is not unrealistic to the character and does help the stories to read better. This is important because part of the reason Black Folklore is such a lost art today is because most of the best books on the subject (see below) were written in a “Negro Dialect” so thick that ithey are almost unreadable today. In a sense, this book is kind of a flipside to Joel Chandler Harris’ Uncle Remus books in that Harris (with rare exceptions such as the opening chapter of “Daddy Jake the Runaway”) tended to show the softer side of slavery.

However, in reading this book, one really envies Faulkner as he graphically describes the joy of listening to an elder regale him with marvelous stories. Those of us who came of age when this was a common experience will truly identify with this, while those who did not will get an idea of what this was like and wish they had the pleasure of such an experience.

I would place this book with other classics of the genre such as Julius Lester’s “Black Folktales,” Edward C.L. Adams’ “Tales of the Congaree,” Ted Poston’s “Dark Side of Hopkinsville,” Charles W. Chesnutt’s “The Conjure Woman,” Zora Neale Hurston’s “Mules and Men,” and of course the Harris Brer Rabbit books. Read, think, learn, and enjoy.

Once you have read the excerpts from Faulkner, the review on Amazon, the Kolchin article, and the Open Stax text, you can begin the assignment.

Here is the ChatGPT essay:

Slaves in the Americas, particularly those of African descent, faced immense challenges due to the brutal system of slavery. However, they managed to create a unique culture that drew from their African roots, combined with elements of the new environment they were thrust into. This cultural fusion was a form of resistance and survival, allowing them to maintain their identity, find solidarity, and cope with the harsh realities of their lives.

1 Folklore and Oral Traditions: Slaves brought with them rich oral traditions, including storytelling, music, and dance, from their various African cultures. They used these traditions to preserve their history, share wisdom, and subtly criticize their oppressors. Folktales often contained hidden messages and lessons that provided guidance and encouragement, contributing to a sense of community and resistance.

2 Religion and Spirituality: Slaves frequently adapted their African religious practices to the new context, resulting in syncretic religions like Vodou, Santera, and Candombl. These spiritual practices not only helped them connect with their ancestral heritage but also provided a means of resistance and hope. By worshiping deities that symbolized resistance and liberation, slaves could find solace and strength in their faith, even when it was subverted by the dominant culture.

3 African Cultural Practices: Slaves found ways to maintain various African cultural practices, such as music, dance, and communal gatherings. These activities not only provided moments of joy and release but also served as outlets for expressing their emotions and frustrations. Drumming, for instance, was often prohibited by slave owners due to its potential for communication and inciting rebellion.

4 Creating a Unique Identity: By blending their African cultural elements with aspects of European culture and the new American environment, slaves forged a distinct identity. This identity allowed them to assert their humanity and autonomy in the face of dehumanizing conditions. They created new languages, art forms, and traditions that became symbolic of their resistance and resilience.

The power and effectiveness of this culture in resisting oppression can’t be overstated. Culture provided slaves with a sense of belonging, unity, and purpose. It fostered a collective consciousness that helped them withstand the physical and psychological hardships of slavery. By maintaining their cultural practices, slaves affirmed their dignity and existence as human beings, countering the attempts by their oppressors to strip them of their identity.

Furthermore, cultural practices provided subtle ways to communicate and organize resistance efforts. Songs, for example, could contain coded messages about escape routes or planned uprisings. Spiritual practices also offered a framework for gathering and discussing plans without arousing suspicion.

Overall, culture was a formidable tool for resisting the oppression of slavery. It gave slaves the emotional and psychological strength to endure and resist, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose. The enduring legacy of African cultural influences can be seen in various aspects of modern African-American culture, highlighting the enduring power of these practices even in the face of extreme adversity.

Your paper should include the underlined items below as section headings.

APA 7th edition Title page:

This is a separate page by itself, with the following information centered in the middle of the page: course title, paper title, students name, instructors name, and date.

Description of Pathology:

Start the paper on a new page.
In this section, you will describe the pathology (statistics about it, background information, etc.). Give as much information as you can about it but be sure it is relevant information and not just filler. It should be a comprehensive introductory section of the condition in one to two paragraphs.

Normal anatomy of the major body system affected: In this section, you will describe what is considered normal anatomy for your particular pathophysiology. For example, if you are discussing a disease related to the brain, explain what is normal for the brain from an anatomical standpoint. You should show comprehensive knowledge of the fundamental concepts and communicate information using scientific vocabulary. There should be little to no discussion of the condition itself in this section.

Normal physiology of the major body system affected: In this section, you will be discussing physiology. Keep in mind that when describing physiology, it isnt enough to merely provide a list of functions of the body system (Ex: Neurons send signals throughout the body), instead, you need to be able to describe how it does it. The how is the physiology. There should be little to no discussion of the condition itself in this section

Mechanism of Pathophysiology: This section is likely going to be the most in-depth and longest section. In this section, you will explain your particular pathophysiology from a scientific standpoint. In the previous two sections, you explained what is considered normal, in this section, you should describe what the pathophysiology is doing that is causing these issues, how the normal anatomy & physiology is affected/different in a person with your condition. You should show a thorough understanding of the anatomical and physiological changes contributing to the disease. Some good keywords to search for when doing your research might be “Pathology of __________, Pathophysiology of __________.”

Prevention: In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology could be prevented. This should outline possible prevention protocols, or clearly indicate if none is available based on the current scientific literature.

Treatment: In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology is commonly treated. Provide possible treatment protocols for the condition based on current scientific literature. Be sure to bring in nursing relevant information and how you might be involved in the treatment of the condition.

Conclusion: Finally you should summarize your findings. All good research papers should include a conclusion where you wrap up and summarize all of the important points made in your paper.

References:

As with the Title page, this should be a separate page by itself.
All references should be included in correct and complete APA format.
All references must be cited appropriately in the paper using APA-style in-text citations.
A minimum of three reputable sources are required for this assignment.
