  2. I would be a abolitionist. I would help slaves that have been in deep trouble and have been whipped and beaten so they could see some doctors and heal. The information was exiting and interesting and I learned a lot I loved it.

  6. I'm a abolitionist and I think its not fair slaves should be treated like they are. So that's why I try to free them with out getting caught by a slave master. But I think the U.S should have no slavery at all because it makes me sad to see them get treated like they do its not fair at all.

  7. I would be an abolitionist because I want to help free slaves. My life would be a little bit hard because I would be a conductor. I wish the United States would make slavery illegal so no slave would get hurt and I want to see that slaves would be treated equal.

  8. I am an abolitionist who would like end all things about slavery in the U.S. I live on a farm I free all the slaves that I can. Sometimes [with the little money I have] I buy slaves than set them free.If the U.S. does not do something about slavery soon I will.

  12. I am a slave. An abolitionist took me all the way to Canada and I am finally free.I feel that slavery is something that is horrible and outrageous. Why did they have to pick people with colored skin to be slaves ? Because in our social studies book it said that sense they were different they were slaves and everybody is different so basically everybody back then and now should be treated equal .
