Wanted: Escaped Slave



Students analyze a wanted poster for an escaped slave for messages about who might benefit, who might be harmed and about how different people respond differently to media messages. This simple decoding activity has been taken from a larger lesson with many slides titled “Arguing For Freedom”. To access this lesson, type the title with quotes into the PLS keyword search bar.
