 Here’s the question:

Howard Zinn writes, “It would take either a full-scale slave rebellion or a fullscale war” to end slavery. Similarly, Zinn’s primary contentions in this chapter is—that the United States government “would never accept an end to slavery by rebellion. It would end slavery only under conditions controlled by whites.” Using examples from your reading in Howard Zinn’s books, agree or disagree with his perspective. Do you think that slavery could have been ended without war? Explain.
