Leadership
I am a leader. I am a leader because when Mr. Ross told me about how to get to Tennessee, I lead Julilly, Adam and Liza there. I also knew when to stop and when to keep going in the very long and tiring trek in the forest. Being a leader can either be a good or bad thing because, it is good when you get praised and rewarded when you succeeed or do well. But it can be a bad thing, when you don't know what to do or when you don't succeed in what you are trying to do.

About Me
- E.B.
- St. Catherines, Canada
- My name is Lester. I'm a slave worker. I get whipped and chained from the back of a wagon. I'm a very mentally and physically strong. I'm 20 years old and as of now I pick cotton in cotton fields at Massa Riley's plantation as slave worker in Mississippi. A man named Mr. Ross picked me and my friend Adam to go with him and study birds in Mississippi. But instead of studying birds, myself, Adam, Julilly and Liza are going to escape to Canada. But we hope that Mr.Sims won't catch us and then whip us. Now I'm a very happy person in St.Catherines, Canada working and getting paid money. My best friend Adam died of blood poisoning. I hope that my other frineds Liza and Julilly can join me in Canada and we can all work together. Not being slaves. I work as a porter. I'm a very happy person now living free in Canada.
Everything you just mentioned is entirely true. I really do like how you took leadership. The pictures really helped me see the experience in a different way. The captions helped me understand too. Also, your about me is very specific and helped me learn more about you. Thank you, Liza.
ReplyDeleteI think the part where u talked about lester being a true leader is true and how he has a strong will power.I liked how u were able to show and explain how Lester's life had been like during the time there was an enourmous amount of slaves.
