Slaves were not thought of as human beings, but merely animals that perform a task of working hard, and had no feelings what so ever. President Thomas Jefferson wrote a speech addressed to the Administration of Justice called Notes on Virginia. In this speech Jefferson thought that blacks by nature were inferior to whites. He states: "They have less hair on the face and body. The secrete less by t

Throught out history there have been many thing that this country and our poor fathers have been guilty of. Especially the whole concept of slavery, but not just slavery. Also holding back the rights of women, and taking the land from Native Americans who originally lived here. I think that there should have been many other approaches to deal with all the issues I have discussed in this paper. I also think it to be rather ironic that a society that was established for men and women to be free, was a complete lie, and virtually took a complete 180 from what it was supposed to be established on. Hopefully by now we understand that these injustices are wrong and that history never repeats itself.

One individual who was willing to challenge the injustices being harbored upon him and women and other blacks was Frederick Douglas. He believed that slavery was wrong on all accounts. As Douglas grew, he knew that a life of slavery was not going to gratify the lifestyle he wanted, and thought he should have. He believed that everyone should be entitled to freedom and education. With the right to an education, he also believed everyone including women should have the right to vote, and the right to speak freely, to have the simply pleasures, and freedoms the white men had.

" There are few things which present greater obstacles to the improvement and elevation of woman to her appropriate sphere of usefulness and duty, than the laws which have been enacted to destroy her independence, and crush her individuality; laws which although they are framed for her government, she has had no voice in establishing, and which rob her of some of her essential rights."

Native Americans suffered the same oppression like women and Blacks. They were ripped from their own land that the "White Males" took and claimed their God given right to inhabit. The Native Americans were here first on this continent we later called "America." They are a peaceful group of people but were antagonized and brutally ruled by the white settlers that came to this country leaving them angry and bitter. I know if I was forced to leave my own land and have my resources such as animals we thought of as food killed for sport I would be pretty upset. Now, who really were the savages? The Whites, or the Native Americans?
