Reading Response • What I found very sad was that they, the slaves, didn’t know there own names. On page 29/30. I felt bad and disliked it because they can take time to beat them and work them to death but they cant take time to teach them their names.
Reading Response • The topic of whipping on page 33, like seriously that mad me a little mad, because they would whip them for little or no reason like they get pleasure out of doing so.
Reading Response • On page 35 it was showing how not all slave owners mistreated their slaves. Some owners treated with a little more respect then others. so why are slave owner stereotyped as bad?
