Read the passages carefully. Explain how modality, medium, and format in the articles as well as in the museum itself have affected your understanding of modern slavery.

Answer:

The articles communicate through written explanations and quotations, while the museum presents documented information in a physical exhibit. The museum’s presentation of the history together makes the pattern across 400 years easier to see. The articles add a current example—the Fair Food Program—and explain how education, hotlines, and inspections can help prevent abuses. Together, these formats shifted my understanding from seeing modern slavery as isolated incidents caused by a few people to recognizing the deeper, continuing problem of farmworkers’ poverty and powerlessness.
