Semestre Dos: Blog Cuatro
If I lived in the late 1700's I would probably live in Rhode Island. I like Rhode Island because It was the only place that had freedom with politic and religion. I like this idea because I wouldn’t like to be forced to believe in something I don’t want. I want to stand up for what I believe and express my ideas and thoughts.I like to stand up for what I believe in and be able to do it freely. At the time there was a lot of farming and plantation. If my family was like that my brother and dad would be working on the far. If it was me and my mom, we would just be the stay at home mothers that cook, clean, sew, and take care of the guys. Simply just stay at home and be with the family. In 1774, Rhode Island also prohibit the importation of slavery. I like that because if there were still slaves then nobody would respect each other but in Rhode Island there was respect and peace between one another.In May of 1776, Rhode Island declared its independence from Great Britain and later on they because a state. Rhode Island seems to be a independent and a place that offers freedom and peace for the people. "In the late 1700s, textile manufacturing grew to become the leading industry in Rhode Island. Spinning machines were first built in 1790 by Samuel Slater. These machines, plenty of water power, nearby markets in Boston and New York City, and excellent transportation allowed the textile industry to grow rapidly. The jewelry and fishing industries were also important businesses in Rhode Island at this time. " I dislike to be a slave or even own one because I don’t believe in that. I don’t believe that a human can own another human. That is wrong and I believe all human beings should be treated equal. No one should be treated wrong for not even doing anything. Freedom is important and is the right thing to do.
