    I'm really happy I got the opportunity to find this and watch it. It was very sad and heart breaking to watch, but very enlightening about the events that took place. I'm sorry for the ancestors of anyone who had to go through this misery and torture. And I praise all the good ppl who tried standing against it to bring it to an end. Idk how a human being can cause someone else pain without remorse or regret. :(

    Here's a fun exercise for your history class. Discuss whether you would've been an Abolitionist living in the northern States in pre-civil war times with all that it curtailed or a nazi living in Germany in pre-WWII times. The answers are very predictable, but the truth is more revealing

      Money and greed, slaves were a huge unpaid workforce. If you did the right thing and freed them a lot of people were going to lose a lot of money. So you find ways to justify it, but money is at the bottom of it. If you bring money into human relationships it screws everything up, that's an old. old story.
