Social Science

In social science, we have been learning about the slave trade and spirituals. We learned how slaves were treated and the slave trade triangle. We also learned what a spiritual was and how they held secret messages to help slaves escape. 

 A spiritual is a type of religious song. They often held secret messages to help slaves escape their captivity. 

We learned about Harriet Tubman and the underground railroad. Harriet Tubman was a woman who helped around 300 slaves. She housed them in the underground railroad. The underground railroad was a line of safehouse spread throughout the slave countries of America. 

1 spiritual we learned about showed the rebellion against the masters of a slave ship. The song explained what their plan was and when to strike, however, they masked it amongst a song so it came across as unsuspicious. 

These events helped to shape the act against anti-racism and that all humans no matter their race should be treated equally.
