And, we were primarily cautious because we had to be careful about the things we said and did to try to escape easily. But, some people wanted to take a more aggressive approach. 2. It felt depressing being in Lucy's shoes because you had to do other people's work and have to overthink everything you do. 3. I learned that slaves had to do many other tasks than just working on farms like doing tasks for the slave owners. ]]> 2021-11-04 14:42:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867632955 Juelwel https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867633615 I didn't learn nothing, I have knowledge on the slavery history.

It seemed like lucy didn't do anything. She and it easy it seemed like. Owners didn't care what they said and they would hit or abuse you whenever.

I focused on self-preservation. Because it would make us pass the game while the others stay, since it's a game if it was real, I would have done it differently. It felt weird to be in her shoes since I'm a dude. I felt no emotions while playing, I just picked whatever I thought was best. I learned that they had a free will even before they started escaping. https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867635995 Hossaen Al-maleki]]> 2021-11-04 14:43:36 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867635995 Christopher question 1 https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867639029 People were focused on aggression and they wanted to do the wrong things]]> 2021-11-04 14:44:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867639029 Sharaylie Cores https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867640509 My approach would have been for Lucy to remain quiet and just ran away. If I was in Lucy's shoes I've made a plan with everyone to jump the slave owner and something I learned is that they seemed to do those things alone at a very young age.]]> 2021-11-04 14:45:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867640509 https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867641146 I feel we were focused on caution and family.

I was focused on family life and self-preservation. 
it didn't feel great being in "someone's shoes" and being treated the way that she was.  
something that i learned was that life wasn't fair and they did not deserve to be treated the way they were. Some of them were able to escape the horrible conditions and others were unable to due to their cercumstances. ]]> 2021-11-04 14:46:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867643154 Sangchen Tamang https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867673006 1. We were focused on making sure Lucy wouldn't have gotten caught and We were being self-preservation since she was the one who we were role-playing. The approach was that we had to be wise and choose the answers carefully so we wouldn't have gotten caught. 2. To be in Lucy's shoes it felt kind of sad and hard for her (?) She had a lot of work to do and not just her own work but she had to help others with their work. She wasn't treated nicely and the guy kept bossing her around and giving her more work than she can do. 3. Something I learned was that they had it really hard and they were over-worked, barely had food or any time to rest and they also weren't even allowed to read. ]]> 2021-11-04 14:57:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867673006 Christopher question 2 https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867695027 It would not fell good to be in her shoes because she had a hard time in the time you are in.]]> 2021-11-04 15:05:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867695027 Christopher question 3 https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867700770 I learned that it was harder for them to live and they were always abused and not able to do anything because they had to be on plantation]]> 2021-11-04 15:06:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867700770 https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867701036 we were very cautious at first obeying everything the master said. the game is pretty hard. but everyone seemed to like lucy and tried helping her. - Braxton]]> 2021-11-04 15:07:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867701036 matt https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867704635 1 My approach was to just stay quiet and work on the plantation till Henry got better. I was focused on caution and self-preservation because it would've been easier to wait till Henry got better so that you can run away with him. 2 It felt hard because you couldn't really do anything without getting caught or whipped. 3 I learned that it was a very harsh life because you were treated like garbage and unfairly.]]> 2021-11-04 15:08:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867704635 Alonso https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867706677 I think that our approach was undoubtedly a mistake and not good. I think this is because we didn't really have good communication with each other. I think that being in Lucy's shoes gives us a better look at how slaves on the run looked like and their experience other than just reading an article or book. What I learned was that they did not listen to reasoning no matter what and they would just shut them up instead of trying to listen. ]]> 2021-11-04 15:09:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1867706677 Mshari Khuda Karam https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1868465636 1. I think the approach for Lucy was something that was not good and we were focusing on Lucy not to get caught. I was focused on self-preservation because I didn't want something to happen while playing the game. 2. It was something hard and difficult to be in Lucy's shoes. I was sad about what happened to people as slaves and how they lived. 3. I learned about how hard their life was before and how they were treated. ]]> 2021-11-04 21:09:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mpschick16/keco5y0htmop7vbj/wish/1868465636
