Hi Joseph,

I wanted to share with you something that happen with one of my students yesterday.
We were talking about Mt Vernon and I told her there were slaves on George’s farm, George Washington owned slaves. My student asked “ Was he good to them?” My responses… think about your question… in any form can slavery be a good thing? In any form is it ok to work for someone without getting paid unless it’s a choice like volunteering? The slaves had no choice … can that be good. She’s a 5 th grader, she thought for a long time and then said NO. A good lesson, thanks to your lessons at the “forced labor camp “ we visited a year ago! Your lessons were powerful!!
Thank you
