The Norris' "allowed" the Powells to farm a small plot of land and sell the resulting produce. The Powells escaped and were hunted for years. By the time they were found, the Powells had established their lives and were working  arduously to maintain a steady living. This specific page of the report details how the community of freed slaves helped protect the Powells from the Fugitive Slave Act by banding together and demanding habeus corpus. In Morrison's Beloved, it took the community banding together for Sethe to finally be protected from schoolteacher, though it was psychological by the end.]]> 2017-02-05 21:55:27 UTC https://padlet.com/soccerdog124/940w1vhdraki/wish/151691782 Negro Life in the South by William Ludwell Sheppard soccerdog124 https://padlet.com/soccerdog124/940w1vhdraki/wish/152137751 This print attempts to display a cozy community experienced by freed slaves in 1872. However, the individuals are portrayed with distorted facial features that make them seem less-than-human. The portrait also features a man as the center of the community in each side of the print. This indicates a distortion of reality used as propaganda to shed a positive light on the lives of freed slaves. ]]> 2017-02-07 14:18:50 UTC https://padlet.com/soccerdog124/940w1vhdraki/wish/152137751 MISSES AND HER SERVANT soccerdog124 https://padlet.com/soccerdog124/940w1vhdraki/wish/166815620
