Theme:Gender Differences in Slavery
Tweet:Tired of being treated as an object; I am an independent woman #metoo
Why:Jacobs's narrative focused on trying to be free and maintain her identity and, even when she was technically free, she had trouble convincing herself of it. We used #metoo to demonstrate the horrors of sexual assault and how, unfortunately, this mistreatment is still present today

Quote: "For some or equally valuable services she gets not half the pay that man does, simply because the modesty of her sex prevents her from resorting to all the arts and means of competition which men employ

Theme: gender inequality
Tweet: women belong in the kitchen #meninist #imadbag

why: This guy is a dbag. Believes that women should not have the same rights as women because men are superior and he thinks it's harmful if we act like they are equal. stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Theme: sexual abuse of slaves
Tweet: #speak up
Why: A large part of the narrative is the abuse of slaves and the oppression Jacobs went through under the rule of Flint.

Fitzhugh: "A Southern farm is the beau ideal of Communism; it is a joint concern,

in which the slave consume

s more than the master, of the coarse products, and is far happier,

because although the concern may fail, he is always sure of a support; he is only transferred to

another master to participate in the profits of another concern..."
Theme: slaves consume as much as they produce, kept not only for profit.
Tweet: #F*ckoutherewiththatsh*t
Why: Fitshugh attempts to justify slavery.

Quote: "My master met me at every turn, reminding me that I belonged to him, and swearing by heaven and earth that he would compel me to submit to him."
Theme: Psychological violence of slavery
Tweet:#f*ckflintandhismindgames
Why: this shows that she was mentally abused by her master. She was too scared of dying to stand up for herself

Fitshugh:
Quote: "We do not set children and women free because they are not capable of taking care of themselves, not equal to the constant struggle of society. To set them free would be to give the lamb to the wolf to take care of."
Theme: Slavery is good
Tweet: #holdemhostage

Why: To look at the slave owner's point of view and how he viewed slavery and why he supported it

"I will procure a

cottage, where you and the

children can live together. Your labor shall be

light, such as sewing for my family. Think what is offered

you, Linda

—

home and freedom!"
Why:
She is being offered domestic life which is a false freedom. Shows the dichotomy of the life she is being offered.
Theme: Domestic life as a prison/paradise
Tweet:
The illusion of freedom isn't freedom #breakfree
Fitshugh:
"To set them free would be to give the lamb to the wolf to take

care of"
Why:
He is using an analogy to justify slavery
Theme: Slavery protects the weak
Tweet: There were bad people on both sides #MAGA
