I was walking with my little brother to go to the market. Our master was trying to find seeds to plant in the farm. Even though we got beat to death and we were told we were property, even though we blacks knew we were equal. The next day I got done with breakfast and went out to the farm I saw all of my owners slaves including my little brother. I was walking to give my little brother some water and saw him with his hands all bloody from picking cotton. He told me "Is that for me" I said yes and handed it to him. He was sweating like crazy with the blazing heat of the sun. Than I went to help him. The owners finally came out to say that lunch a minute later you could see all of the slaves running in. Now the lunch tastes horrible but there was a saying that our owner would say Which is "you get what you get or you get nothing".
