Southern Plantations

On Thursday we discussed the paradox of colonists who fought for freedom and who also kept slaves.  The topic arose while the class was reading and thinking about the differences between life in the northern colonies and the southern colonies.  They read about plantations and noted that they were similar to little towns. 

Maya wrote: The class made me think about how sad it was to be a slave.  What was it really like?
