Re:name/ writing date

I read this short story and liked it. I think Josh wasn't an ingrate at all,as evey peson has the right to be free. The author narrates about time before the Civil War and after, displaying the great changes that have come after the proclamation of freedom for slaves. He mentions abolitionists and Quakers, who played a significant role in the movement against slavery. The story also embraces the cultural context trough the relationships between whites and slaves.
It is sad, slavery is still with us. Here, today and now. Someone notice, someone want to ignore. Trafficking has acquired a global dimension and is a modern form of slavery. The majority of modern slaves are women. Modern slavery affects all countries of the world. The exact number of modern slaves in the world is unknown. In 2005, the UN concluded that every year fall into slavery, about 700 thousand people, in the U.S.A. from 600 to 800 thousand people.
The tone of the text is very rich and colorful, his words touch readers deeply. In this text, the author descibes feelings and motives of different people from the distinct levels of the society lively.
