Past two days of class 11/9 and 11/13

On Friday in class we were given a few different handouts on the underground railroad. We read sections of all different textbooks and then wrote about the main points of each, and how they compared to each other. One interesting thing I learned is that the Underground railroad wasn't really an underground railroad at all. It really was just a secretive form of transporting the slaves to the north. And today in class we did a few worksheets dealing with the north and the south, and how they related to each other. We also worked on the the affects of the Missouri Compromise and how that split up the land that both prohibited, and allowed slavery.
