The main reason for this blog is to talk about news and the class I am doing this for. The class is called Talking about Freedom. So far its gone very well and I enjoy it. We mostly talk about history which sometimes i enjoy very much. In class lately we have been talking about certain dates and have created a timeline. We made a timeline on the Civil Right era and Meta timeline era. Both are interesting. There are some court cases that i am interested in learning about. I wasn't sure if I was going to like this class or not because I don't enjoy history very much, but it became easy to learn and it wasn't a boring class at all. It was a class I didn't dread going to unlike some of my other classes. My classmates are always in a good mood and talkative. Some of my other classes are so serious and I don't enjoy that at all. I'm glad that I had the chance to take this class, I learned a lot.

Mann v State

In class we had a mock trial on Mann vs. State was about a slave owner who shot his save in the back as she ran away, because it was his property he felt he should not have been charged with anything, but the state thought otherwise. Students in my class were split into two teams, my team was defending Mann. My specific topic in the trial was that the slave was his property. I used certain codes and "slave laws" to defend my point. Other students in my group used the points of history and religion. It was harder to defend Mann, because he did shoot a human being and to anybody that is wrong.
