Hey there! :) 

1. 
Just to give you a little refresher on this specific rebellion, the Nat Turner Rebellion was a slave one. This rebellion took place in Southampton Country, Virginia during the early 1800s. It was led by Nat Turner, hence giving the rebellion as a whole a name. During August of 1831, rebel slaves killed about 55-65 people, with at least 51 of them being white.

Now, to answer your question, in case you weren't aware of who these two people were, then here's a little insight on each person.

Hinton Helper : A man who lived during the late-ish 1800s until the early 1900s. He was a white man, and opposed slavery--meaning that he looked down upon those who owned slaves. Not only did he oppose slavery, but he was also a American Southern critic. This merely meant that he judged those that owned slaves, and even wrote his own book in 1857 called "The Impending Crisis of the South : How to Meet It" to which he devoted to only non slave-owning whites in the South. 

William Lloyd Garrison : An American white man known for being an abolitionist. He rallied and fought to end slavery. Not only was he an abolitionist, but he was also a suffragist. This simply meant that he felt pain for all of the endearingly hard years that women suffered, and wanted them to be equal and able to vote. He was known the most by being the editor of the abolitionist journal, called "The Liberator" from which he founded in 1831 with Isaac Knapp and published in Massachusetts until eventually, slavery ended. 

Now, our initial question was : What do you think each of these men would say to one another regarding the Nat Turner Rebellion? 

Answer : I think that they would've agreed on each other's ideas, and maybe William would've said something along the lines of "I like your book and your ideas on abolishing slavery, but why is it that you did not dedicate your book 'The Impending Crisis of the South : How to Meet It' to not only the non slave-owning whites of the South, but also to the slaves that were kept by the whites? I understand how you congratulate those whites for not giving in and owning a slave, but how do you think those slaves felt being in those households? Do you not want their voices being heard?" 

In return to what Garrison says to Helper, he may reply with something along the lines of this : "Thank you--I enjoyed reading your newspaper articles on slavery. Not only did it keep me updated on what was going on, but it showed your passion and need to end slavery, so I thank you for that. However, I do not think that slaves as a whole needed to be recognized and dedicated in that particular book. I'd like for the whites that did not own slaves to be recognized and in particular, I want them to know that they are thanked for their seemingly small actions."

Similarly to what I did in question 1, I'd like to review on what this particular event was, and would like to dwell more on who these specific people were. 

Now, let's remember that the Mexican-American War took place from April 25th, 1846 until it eventually ceased on February 2nd, 1848. This war happened, of course, over a dispute about manifest destiny and economics. America wanted more land, hence the dispute over manifest destiny, and we wanted our economy to thrive. Americans in the US wanted to have more slave states, which in turn would increase our political power. In the end, the United States won the war.

Now, let's introduce John C. Calhoun & Frederick Douglass. :) 

John C. Calhoun : Former vice president of the US, and was on the democratic party. Served in office from 1825-1843. He was known widely for defending slavery and whites. He believed that slavery was beneficial for the country, and basically believed that white people could do whatever they wanted. He believed that war is the answer to disputes.

Frederick Douglass : A black man, who was an abolitionist and passed down stories from past times about the hard times that slaves faced. Not only that, but he was also a writer, wrote many books on both his life, and the life of others that unfortunately were slaves. He believed in peaceful ways, not in war. 

Answer : I feel like Douglass would've asked John C. Calhoun as to why he didn't try to end slavery when he was in office, and why he believed that war was the answer. Something along the lines of this : "Greetings, Mr. Calhoun. Although I do respect your opinions on slavery and war, I do not believe that your beliefs are the right way to go. War will waste our supplies, and dampen our spending on useless weapons of destruction. We do not need to increase our slave states--we not to decrease them!"

In response, John Calhoun would say this : "Greetings to you as well, Mr. Douglass. War will make ends meet. We will get more land, power, and supplies through this! White people should have the ability to have and get what they need, so why not use lesser humans to get this?"

I definitely hope that this helped! Best of luck on your further assignments. :)
