Answer 1

e

Answer 2

In their answer, students should grapple with the question of social equality for blacks and whites, and discuss the possible reasons why the Society in its actions never addressed this question. Better students will point out that any solution to slavery in the United States that involved compensating slave owners for their losses and requiring slaves to go back to Africa could never come to terms with the question of racial equality. Also, ask students to evaluate the reasons why colonization failed and why abolitionism as a movement endured. Finally, ask students to examine the question of which solution was more compatible with American ideals as embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.
