assignment 7

From reading these documents, life in the colonies was pretty hard. People were very stuck on their traditions and ways, not giving much room for change. Slavery was very common, and it was usual for people to be kidnapped and traded or sold, like meat. Something that surprised when that i read was about the slaves that were children, who were kidnapped and carried for days without food. that's crazy, i mean i thought people just sold and bought people...and that's crazy too. but stealing people like that, not feeding them, and treating them...literally like they are NOTHING.Modern life in America is not to the same extremes as they were back then. although that's true, if you look at the bigger picture, people still do kidnap people, and jump them, and beat them. It's like they have no remorse, and no feelings. I don't understand how after all of this that our world has been through, all the pain and wars and dead mothers, fathers, children, brothers, sisters, how could some careless person add to all of that pain by kinapping a child, or beating somebody. Something has GOT to give one of these days.
