    It is difficult to relate personally to the narratives covered in "Slavery and Freedom", especially during this time of year when we are reminded to give thanks for all that we hold dear. It is unimaginable to think about the life of slaves such as Frederick Douglass and Harriet Jacobs. Their sense of family was cut off at birth or shortly after, forming a personal identity was impossible and gaining freedom required huge acts of courage.…

    Overall review Incarceron by catherine fisher is a very creative and eventful story. It is creative with the idea of two contrasting environments intersecting with one another. With one being a giant prison with metal forest and creatures, while the other taking place in a fancy home. The plot of the story was interesting because of the many twist that occur throughout the entire book. An example of this would be when the reader finds out Claudia was born in incarceron and she was adopted by the warden.…

    Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin was written in 1852 as a way to expose the morbid hell of slavery. Even though it is fiction, the book revealed the harsh treatment of slaves. After forcing Northerners, Southerners, and politicians to confront the issue of slavery, this book became one of the many catalysts that sparked the Civil War. Harriet tells a story of tears, sorrow, triumphs, and most importantly, undoubted faith in God. Though it was written more than 150 years ago, this work of literature is unfathomably modern because of its possession of some of the same problems that we deal with today. We learn of the characters’ trials as they try to overcome and escape slavery. This book addresses so much more than just slavery; the readers are introduced to many questions: does God exist, why do bad things happen, why does God allow evil to exist, does God punish wrongdoers, or reward good people? These questions remain unanswered today.…

When his children were very young, he began to teach them an instrument, “A.B.” the bass and Suzette the drums. Suzette at first HATED the idea of playing the drums. When Selena was just 3 years old, she demanded to know why her father was leaving her out of the music. Abraham simply said she was too young. Right then Selena showed him she was not too young, she showed him her own instrument, her voice. She sang Blue Moon, Abraham couldn't believe what a beautiful sound he heard. By the time Selena was 6, she was already singing like a pro in English and in Spanish, even though she didn't speak the language, alongside her brother, sister, and father.

The family moved to Corpus Christi, Texas where they piled into an old bus with all their musical equipment. They played everywhere they could, on streets, at weddings.

    Although slavery has always been one of the most influential things in shaping what is America today, it was not always like how people picture it in the modern day, aka: “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”. In early seventeenth century Chesapeake region, slaves were kind of treated like indentured servants. They were granted freedom at a certain point in time, whereas slaves in the nineteenth-century were almost never granted freedom by their owners and were treated as property rather than humans due to things like rebellions (such as Shay’s Rebellion or Bacon’s Rebellion). In the early 17th century, slavery was not yet established. Whites would treat slaves and indentured servants almost equally and they weren’t as cruel with them. Slaves in the Chesapeake region were tied to their master just like slaves in the south during the 19th century, but there were certain distinctions between them concerning working conditions and African American culture. In the 17th century, slaves were not put under absolutely terrible working conditions; they were tolerable. A few of the earliest African immigrants gained their freedom and some even became slaveowners themselves. Also, blacks in the tobacco-growing Chesapeake had a somewhat easier lot. Tobacco was a less physically demanding crop than those of the deeper south. However, African Americans in the 19th century had far worse working conditions. Cotton picking before Eli Whitney’s cotton gin was torture and an extreme hazard for the men, women, and even children working in cotton fields. Slaves in the 17th and 19th century also had distinctions in their culture. In the 17th century Chesapeake region, African Americans contributed to the stable growth of a slave culture including: speech, religion, and folkways. They developed a new language called Gullah which used words we still use today like goober, gumbo, and voodoo. They also introduced the ringshot, a West African religious dance and eventually contributed to the development of…
