One thing that really surprised me was that the mistress was using them even for the simplest task like getting a glass of water. I was disappointed reading this information and I find it shows laziness.

A thing that really impressed me was the fact that the little kids start working when they are extremely young and sometimes even when they are just born.

Another thing that really impresses me is the fact that people know where the north star is, because for us we can't even see the stars from the light pollution. This causes us to not know the placement of the north star.

One of the facts that really shocked me was that the masters will separate their slaves' families to gain more money. The parents must feel so heart broken, because their family is pretty much the only thing left for them as slaves, and the masters can simply take them away with no pity.

The fact about slavery is already very bad but the fact that there is actually some people that wants to help people in slavery makes me very happy because a lot of people judge others just by looking at their apperence but some nice people risks their lives to save other wich to me is a very sensitive and nice act to do.

I find it interesting how to find their way, runaway slaves often looked for moss growing on trees. Since moss typically grows on the north side of tree trunks, it served as a compass-especially during the day or on (cloudy) nights when the North Star was out of sight.

Something that surprised me was that if you find a nigro slave you get  a big reward and that its pretty much illegal to help out a fugitive, anywhere they go there is no way to hide its like people do not have respect for them.

Something that really impressed me about the slaves is that they have the courage to risk everything to go free. They may need to cross many obstacles that may cause their death, they have a big chance of getting found and severely punished, and not everyone is willing to help them, but they go anyway for their freedom.

Even the dogs bark at the fugitives,  II am happy that at least there are some white people that will help the fugitives escape those people are the kind people unlike the others white people.

Something else that impressed me was that some white people, even if they were free and had rights, would risk everything to help slaves find freedom.

Its the fact that some black kids that really want to escape escape on their own and they don't care about the risks of getting caught by their master. I'm really glad that there isn't as much slavery as before now because I was scared when I was little that I would be taken away from my parents but I now know that there isn't such things anymore in Canada and there is a lot less slavery in the world now.

Another thing that got me intrigued was the communication between Mr. John and the slaves. John Rankin would put a candle in his window to signal that it was safe to cross the Ohio River to his home. Slaves crossing the river followed this beacon of light to Rankin's home in Ohio. Stationmasters like John took great risks by helping runaway slaves.

Another thing that impressed was that so many families were willing to help the slaves they found. They could have easily sold them back to their masters to gain large amounts of money, but they chose to help them out instead of taking the easy path.

That the slaves have to work from since they were just a little kid till death, they had to work from sunrise to darkness and they are prived from food and water.

Something that caught my eye in the Reaching Freedom is that even in the North, blacks faced intense discrimination. They were often discouraged from worshipping and working in the same places as whites. Black communities formed in big cities and rural areas throughout the North, where blacks started their own schools, businesses, and churches. But despite their accomplishments and contributions, blacks would not be considered Amercian citizens until 1866.

The Civil war mostly took place because the south part of the States wanted to keep slavery, unlike the North who wanted to remove it. The North and the South were constantly arguing, the North liked city life, the south preferred plantation life. The South did more agriculture, unlike the North who were more industrial. The South depended on slaves to harvest cotton for them, and Abraham Lincoln tried to stop it. After he was elected president, about six countries left the Union and named Jefferson Davis as their first (and last) president. After, there is a Confederate attack on Fort Sumter, who surrendered after 34 hours. This begins the 4 years of the Civil War

I am happy that there are many kind hearted people in Cleveland, Ohio that help out the refugies and that when they get into Canada they are all safe. Almost everybody in Cleveland will help out the refugies showing them the way to lac Erie and cross into Canada. Slavery should not of ever been a thing anywhere in the world wether you are black or white, you deserve a good life.
