Unspoken Truths 
While Americans celebrate the accomplishments of the Founding Fathers’ speeches and other published works, it is important to note that these white, land-owning males had many more freedoms than women and minorities who lived in the Thirteen British Colonies.
Select a work created by a female and/or minority author from the colonial period. For instance, you might select "On Being Brought from Africa to America" a poem by Phillis Wheatley, which you can find in this week’s syllabus. Another useful text is Mary Rowlandson’s A True History of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson. (Go ahead and use the Mary Rowlanson text as the link is right here.  The other one mentioned is actually a video clip so this will probably be easier to quote)Read the work carefully. As you read, utilize the “I CARE” system of rhetorical analysis found on page two of Analyzing Rhetoric.  (I’ve attached the “I CARE” reading as well.  Sorry they are all on individual pages)
Focus specifically on A, analysis and consider the limited freedoms of the author in the colonial period.What is the implicit message of the text you selected? 
Support your response with at least two quoted pieces of evidence from the text.
