You know how they turn cattle out in a pasture" (Hughes 15).  From this statement, this makes us understand the lives of the enslaved/free after the Civil War had occurred.  We can understand that even when freedom among the enslaved was declared, they still suffered hard living conditions. ]]> 2017-02-05 22:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/18waltersmia/5jt74ut1ecpo/wish/151692471 18waltersmia https://padlet.com/18waltersmia/5jt74ut1ecpo/wish/151693350 1.
