Discussion – Slave Owners

This week we’ve studied the various ways that African Americans lived their lives as free people and also as slaves. We focused exclusively on slave experiences but not at all on owners or the white people who interacted with black slaves. As a society we have come to the conclusion that slavery is wrong, it was immoral, and hateful. I pose to you this moral question: is there such a good thing as a slave owner? If yes, what would define that? If no, explain your ideas as well. Root your arguments in logic, primary sources, and a sincere critique of the question. Please read details Create a new discussion topic. Develop a substantive main thread addressing each part of the prompt in full. Your initial thread should be 2-3 paragraphs in length (200+ words total). Support your points with examples or illustrations from the text. Quotations/citations are not strictly required, but APA style should be used if quoting or paraphrasing from the literature or outside sources.
