==Name: Hello my name is Monae' Adams and i am a very hard working slave thats in the cotton fields almost 24 hours a day. I was born in 1681, living with my mother and my older sister Monique, but my mother didn't tell me to much about my father because he was a free black man. == =A page from the journal of= = =

Entry Number 1:
== I heard about Harriett Tubman, a runaway slave from Maryland who became known as the "Moses of her people." She led hundreds of slaves to freedom along the Underground Railroad, which was a secret network of safe houses where runaway slaves could stay on their journey North to freedom. She later became a leader in the abolitionist movement, and during the Civil War she was a spy for the federal forces in South Carolina as well as a nurse. ==

==**My opinion about Harriett Tubman was that it was a good idea of what she had in mind about herself, and how she thought about other slaves of being free was so heroic. Only one thing that i wish to know is, what did all the slave masters/owners have to say about her?. Her idea of slavery could possibly make history one day!**==



Entry Number 2:Dear Journal,
==**Frederick Douglass** (born **Frederick Augustus Washington Bailey**, February 14, 1818 – February 20, 1895) was an American abolitionist, women's suffragist, editor, orator, author,statesman and reformer. Douglass is one of the most prominent figures in African-American and United States History. In 1872, Douglass became the first African American nominated as a Vice Presidential Candidate in the U.S., running on the Equal Rights Party ticket with Victoria Woodhull, the first woman to run for President of the United States.He was a firm believer in the equality of all people, whether black, female, Native American or recent immigrant.==

==From my point of view i think that Douglass was a good man. He was a very strong, brave man. This man put all his trust in what he believed in and was against slavery, which was a very good thing to do. He was helpful to alot of us slaves by ending the slavery times with President Abraham Lincoln!==

Entry Number 3:Dear Journal,
==A novel called Uncle Tom's Cabin Historic site commemorates the life of Reverend Josian Henson (born on July 14, 1811-July 1, 1896) Recognized for his contribution to the abolition movement and for his work in the Underground Railroad, he rose to international fame after Harriet Beecher Stowe acknowledged his memoirs as a source for her 1852 anti-slavery novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin. It was Henson's life experiences that inspired Ms.Stowe's creation of the character Uncle Tom in her 1852 outcry against slavery.==

==I think that he (Uncle Tom) was another good man because of the fact that he was a abolition, which means he was against slavery. He was a very good slave himself, but it seemed as if he should've been the man to end slavery at the time. It was sad when a young man made Tom a promise and when he finally had the chance to make it, Tom was about pass away! =`(==



2. Why would slavery ever be condoned in the United States?
== Different slave owners may need to get help in their large fields, and the people over our country may never find out about the slavery going on unless someone catches that slave owner or it be a second Harriett Tubman. ==
