Slavery was a huge factor in the existence of this country. Something that interested me was that a lot of the slaves went against the whites when they knew that they would be killed if they got caught. This picture represents the cruelty that the whites put the blacks through. Abolitionists started out only verbal attacks but later on became violent and led to the war. Slavery had good and bad things about it. The good was that more things were getting done and inventions led to company empires. the bad was that people were being enslaved and owned as if they were animals. They were finally released after a long time.
