I have also learned the diversity of religion how religion changed and how people celebrated religion. Another thing I learned about diversity within a new nation was a diverse nation. People were treated horribly if they were black and they enslaved and it was just terrible. So basically, I have learned that slavery is never good and it was a horrible mistake people made in the past, I also learned how religion changed and how people didn't believe back then and got punished sometimes for religion. Another thing I learned was how race was a problem back then because black people had no rights to do anything.
