 * July 4,1776 what!! Happened **


 * The king of England name Gorge send people to American for Escape William Penn and The Pilgrim so they can start a new life. The King wanted the people to pay taxes but the people beg the king to let them vote. The king said no. They beg him many of time to let them vote but he refuse to agree. The king started a war between the England and American Call the revolution. The Congress met in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and they appointed a committee (a group of people working together to do a specific job) to write a formal document that would tell Great Britain that the Americans had decided to govern them. The committee asked Thomas Jefferson to write a draft (first try) of the document, so he worked for days, in absolute secret, until he had written a document that he thought said everything important that the committee had discussed. On June 28, 1776, the committee met to read Jefferson's "fair" copy (he put his best ideas together and wrote them neatly.) They revised (made some changes) the document and declared their independence on July 2, 1776. They officially adopted it (made it theirs) on July 4, 1776. That is why we call it " Independence Day ." Congress ordered that all members must sign the Declaration of Independence and they all began signing the "official" copy on August 2, 1776. In January of the next year, Congress sent signed copies to all of the states. **

Nat Turner

N**at turner was born in VA. He was born a slave and the learn how to read from a bible. At the end of the story white people hanged him because god so called told him that.**


 * On one hand, I don’t think what Nat did was right. Nat should have not kill people. Just because of what they did to him. Because it is not good for no man to kill another man and so on. **


 * On the other hand. I don’t think that killing people is right under any circumstance. He should have been better than them he should them he should have though better than them. **


 * POLITCAL CARTOON **

This is about political cartoon. The other white man if forcing slavery down the other man mouth. The author he does not like slavery he thinks its NOT RIGHT.

 The Depart Home by charles murray

In African American history class we watched a movie called Amistad. The director of this movie is Steven Spielberg. The screenwriter is David Franzoni. The setting of this movie is in 1839. The Atlantic Ocean and Spain, American

The character in this movie is Cinqu he was a slave from African. He was taken from his home by force. The court said that he murder European people. Queen Isabella second she is the Queen of Spain. The American people took her slaves and she wants them back. John Quincy Adams former president he was the 16 President of the USA. He went to court to help the African people in court so they can be free.

The African revolted because the white man kid napped them from there home, on a ship called Amistad. The African people where on the ship for many week. They ran out food. They all just want to go home so bad. So they made the two European men take them home. But the two European men set off course to American. When they where all put into slavery.

The African people were taken from their home than they where put in jail because the other white men said that they killed the all the men on the ship. Put they where just defending them self they went to court and they won because John Quincy Adams help them.

The part I like the best is when they where all set free and got sent home that’s the part I like the best. Cinqu

John Brown BY CHARLES MURAY

John brown was a white man that’s wanted to wipe slavery of the face of earth. He was an abolitionist. He thinks that every one should be free. John Brown tries to start a war at Harper valley. He solves guns and bought pikes. He went to Harper ferry and tries to fight the army. They did not win some of his men where killed only few got away. John brown was sent to court he lost and was hanged and killed.

I believe that john brown was a freedom fighter. He was a good man. He wants every black woman and child to be free. And treated just as fair and nice as if they where white. You might call him insane but he knew what was right and was wrong. I think john brown was a brave man that was not even black but he fought and died as if he was.

I think it was fair for him to kill. He knows that black people died every day. Many blacks probably died from being wipe to death or hung for no reason. john brown " ** When I strike, the bees will begin to swarm, and I want you to help hive them. ** "
