    Freedom did not come easy for the former slaves of the United States of America. Racism was still highly prevalent in the process of ratifying the 13th Amendment and even more afterwards.

After the 13th Amendment was ratified on January 31‚ 1865‚ former slaves used political

    Definition Of Freedom

    • 456 Words
    • 2 Pages

    I think that freedom is given but if you do something bad like take something from a store that you didn’t buy then you get your right from going in that store again taken away.

    The Limits of Freedom Katt Carpenter There have been many limits to people’s freedom since America was discovered. One that stands out to me the most is the limiting of a person’s freedom because they are a slave or an indentured servant. Both men and women held the positions of slaves or indentured servants‚ and they were not treated as one should be treated.
