Introduction
Ann Plato was a member of the Talcott Street Church (Hartford’s first Black church), a teacher at the second school created for Black children, and one of the first African American writers to publish a book of essays and poems (1841, Hartford). This assignment for Intermediate and Advanced ESOL develops students’ understanding of critical and global perspectives and asks the essential question, what can we infer about writers and their time (context) from the details in a text that provide evidence for the writer’s main ideas?
