When I began writing my annotated bibliography, I was very conflicted between two different sources. In the text, Campbell references a speech given by Frederick Douglass, and within that speech, Douglass touches on a text written by an Episcopalian Bishop named William Meade. Meade’s views on slavery were shocking and immediately caught my attention and sparked the question I am looking to answer which is how Christian leaders of the early 19th century could justify the system of slavery. I was unsure if it would be better to look at Douglass’ speech with Meade’s included or just the text from Meade. Eventually, I decided to do Douglass’ speech because it was very difficult to find a good source for Meade’s text. Writing the annotated bibliography was a little challenging and I am honestly still not completely certain that I did it correctly so hopefully working on it in class will help.
