    Qz03b3 Unit03 - Era of Growth & Disunion

    Uploaded by

    Anthony Valentin
    This document appears to be a set of multiple choice questions about speeches given by Abraham Lincoln and John Brown related to slavery in the United States. Specifically, it asks about Lincoln's 1838 "Young Men's Lyceum" speech where he detailed his views on law and politics. It also asks about John Brown's 1859 speech he gave in a Virginia court while on trial for raiding the Harper's Ferry Arsenal, where he defended abolitionist views and was ultimately sentenced to death by hanging. The questions assess understanding of these two influential speeches and the context around slavery and states' rights debates in the mid-19th century.
