Bondage

No matter what Sally did, she could not get the ideal out of her mind that her own family once own slaves. " How could my ancestor do that to humans, thought Sally as she walked through the door of her family's 19th century home?"
"See this is what I mean," voiced the Margaret, who had been reading the story out loud! "This stupid girl knows her family owned my people! As she walked through the door of her 19th century home," quoted Margaret; "idiot, where you think that came from; the sky?" With every word, Margaret became more and more emotional about the topic.
