  1. Bell Ringer Read the following quote from the Mennonites of Germantown on their view of slavery and briefly contrast that with the overall view of European explorers’ view on native Americans and speculate why those views might differ. The Mennonites of Germantown, Pennsylvania, recorded the earliest known protest against slavery in America in 1688: “There is a saying, that we should do to all men like as we will be done ourselves. . . . But to bring men hither, or to rob and sell them against their will, we stand against. . . Pray, what thing in the world can be done worse towards us, than if men should rob or steal us away, and sell us for slaves to strange countries, separating husbands from their wives and children?”
