Reconstruction Riots
This task requires students to weigh the values and limitations of a document as historical evidence on the topic of Reconstruction. Students with a sophisticated understanding of how to source a document will be able to explain that the primary source illustrations (Harper's Weekly, 1866) might be useful because they were contemporary depictions of the riots. They will also observe, however, that the artist may not have been present at the riots- and that this is a rendition drawn either from memory or from others' accounts, making it less useful as evidence of what happened.
Resources include PDF downloads of the assessment with source materials, and a rubric with benchmark descriptors.
