Assignment for Monday, 9/17

Please read Tocqueville, Chapter XVIII (18), "The Present and Probable Future Condition of the Three Races Which Inhabit the Territory of the United States." You do not have to read the entire chapter, which is very long, but only the first third of it. Specifically, read:
-- All of the introductory section
-- All of the section titled, "The Present and Probably Future Condition of the Indian Tribes which Inhabit the Territory Possessed by the Union"
-- The beginning of the section titled, "Situation of the Black Population in the United States, and Dangers with Which Its Presence Threatens the Whites," up until the discussion of Ohio and Kentucky. (Stop reading at the paragraph that begins, "The State of Kentucky was founded in 1775, the State of Ohio only twelve years later.")

Let me know if you have any questions about what to read. As a reminder, please note that you can feel free to summarize this reading.
