When writing this paper, consider the following questions: What are the power and gender dynamics involved and how are female slaves viewed by southern whites? What do Celia’s defense attorneys argue? How does the trial threaten to undermine the foundations of slavery? How do the events that took place outside of Calloway County impact Celia’s trial and ultimate fate and how do they help us understand the trial?
