Lots of students have missed classes for various reasons over the last couple of weeks.  Just so we're all on the same page, you should have handed in or be working on:


- your 1 page essay on slavery.  The video link is in my last post (episode 11, chapter 3).


- your map of British, French, German and American empires circa 1914.  Additional info for the charts can be found in the text, or if it is easier, online (even through wikipedia).
