Past two days of class 11/16 and 11/19

On Friday the 16th, we talked about the Slave Law of 1850, and how it basically said that anyone who helped runaway slaves would have to either pay a $1,000 fine or around 6 moths of jail. We then started to read a story that talked about a runaway and a man hiring these people to find the slave. Today in class we talked about the story and the specifics. Then talked about the consequences of the slave law and different scenarios.
