Slavery Crash Course 3,2,1

  • 3 things known
  1. Slavery lasted a really long time.
  2. Slaves were the ones who actually made trade possible between the South and the North. They were the ones who grew and made things that were then later sold.
  3. The whites were racist towards the slaves and repeatedly stated that the Africans were inferior to the whites. 
  • 2 things learnt
  1. Slaves were treated in SO brutally. They were made to feel as though they were not human anymore... And the slave owners believed that weren't...
  2. Slaves actually rose up against their white masters and killed them.
  • 1 thing wondered
  1. How was it that underground railroads were never found out? Didn't the whites wonder as to where large number of slaves were going and didn't they thoroughly check those small stations?
