Text Purpose I thank the author did this to inform us about slavery and how HORRIBLE it was back then so we would hopefully never repeat ourselves. The intended audience is kids.

Text Structure It’s in third-person objective for the italics and is first person for the real story. It helps me know how the slaves felt in all the senses.

Text Representation  Treated better  Slept inside house  Less whips  Saw owner more Treated worse Slept outside in slave quarters More whips Less contact with owner House Servant Plantation Slave Slave worke d hard

Author’s Perspective/Point of View SubjectAuthor’s Feelings Text Evidence To be a slave in the U.S. during slavery. He doesn’t like what was done to slaves back then. Pg.62 The house of the slaves were generally more fit for animals than for human beings.

Main Idea ParagraphsMain Idea Beginning-Page #90How it’s better to be a house servant. Middle-Page #72How many whippings you get. End-Page #103When to go to religious meetings

Supporting Details DetailsPage #Comments How the plantation supposedly looked. 59 She describes how the mansion looked. Saying how they lived in inhumanity. 111 We might not thank it was so bad. Saying that hearing the horn is a good thing. 75 It wouldn’t have told us how bad their lives were.

Facts Page #Comments Slaves sang and danced at parties. 107 I think he did this to show that slaves weren’t totally enslaved. The Kuk Klux Klan would kill blacks that made good money. 148 To show that even after slavery life was still hard for them. Blacks would go join the Union army. 130 To show that slaves wanted to be free and they would help others. Some slaves killed their owners in self defense. 128 To show that they must have really been hurt to go to such measures. Some owners were good to their slaves To show that sometimes there was goodness.

Opinions Page #Comments The slaves did the opposite of what they were told. 102 To show they made their own decisions. That to deal with a suspected insurrection is to instruct more pain. Top of 119 To show the slave owners cruelty. Saying slavery was summed up in one sentence Bot. of To say that was what slavery was all about. Saying a plantation doesn’t look like that. 59 To show that most weren’t like that. Saying slaves “lived for Christmas” 110 To show that was what they looked forward to all year.

Reading Response #128: Slaves attacked their owners- I can relate to that because I would do that in self defense too. #148: K.K.K. kills blacks- I dislike this because why would you do that?!?! #110: Slaves lived for Christmas- I feel sad that slaves wanted one week of the of the whole year to come that badly and it makes me wonder, how bad were slaves were really treated.
