While the former slave Frederick Douglass wrote and lectured and advised presidents, his friend John Brown delivered his message with bullets. The 48 cards in this deck treat the history of abolitionism biographically and thematically. Half the cards provide close-ups of women and men who worked to free America’s slaves—writers, editors, activists, underground railway conductors, and leaders of slave rebellions. The other half include detailed essays on such subjects as the Amistad mutiny, abolitionist newspapers, the underground railroad, and Black women’s role in the abolitionist movement.","brand":"Pomegranate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40128303268030,"sku":"K269","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/0297\/7982\/files\/K269_01_08ebd769-9bf6-46ef-990a-f8f6fca85ee5.png?v=1780420168"},{"product_id":"african-american-wisdom-knowledge-cards","title":"African American Wisdom: A Deck of Memorable Quotes Knowledge Cards","description":"\u003cem\u003e“If I had let myself think too deeply about what might happen to me, I might have gotten off the bus.

African American History Knowledge Cards","description":"Oxford, Selma, Montgomery, Birmingham, Little Rock: some place names are unforgettably associated with the events bitter and brave that happened there. This deck of 48 cards visits the sites of broad fame or infamy, and briefly recounts their significance in African American history. But the reader will also touch down in places like Atlantic City, New Jersey (where the redoubtable Fannie Lou Hamer made her presence known at the 1964 Democratic national convention), Nantucket, Massachusetts (the escaped slave Frederick Douglass attended his first antislavery gather there in 1841), and Auburn, New York (final home to Harriet Tubman, who died there in 1913). In other words, the author hasn't been satisfied to simply hit the high spots; instead, he has dug deep to come up with this satisfying minihistory. Each card gives a location, date, and year on one side, with an arrow pointing to the location on a map of the United States. The card's back tells what took place there. A stimulating classroom tool and an attractive, well-written way to brush up on forgotten lore—or learn history previously unknown.","brand":"Pomegranate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40128888275134,"sku":"K211","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/0297\/7982\/files\/K211_01.png?v=1758872384"},{"product_id":"great-african-americans-volume-ii-knowledge-cards","title":"Great African Americans, Vol. II Knowledge Cards","description":"Changemakers of the 20th and 21st centuries, the African Americans featured here have quietly righted imbalances of power and fiercely dismantled institutional barriers to racial equity. Do you know who they are? With a quick fact on the front and a short biography on the back, each card in this deck will test your knowledge of America’s story. Rosa Parks made headlines and the history books, but do you know the 15-year-old girl who galvanized the movement? Educators, civil rights leaders, artists, writers, politicians, scientists, and so much more, these women and men have fought, in the words of President Barack Obama, “to make real the promise of America.”","brand":"Pomegranate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40129309180094,"sku":"K386","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/0297\/7982\/files\/K386_01_12fa998d-022d-4fdb-acbf-9bd4fa8fa74f.png?v=1758872949"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.pomegranate.mom\/collections\/knowledge-cards-on-black-history.oembed","provider":"Pomegranate ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
