It is hard for me to read how casually and carelessly Lashley regarded human life. Anything to make him more money #auburnworldhistory

[Mary Creed Christopher @mcmakinghistory]

I still have such a hard time understanding how people were used as currency. It is crazy that to some people an actual human being was of the same value as some amount of money. I am truly baffled by this #auburnworldhistory

Douglas knew the way he was earning his money was wrong. Hiding the fact that he did, in fact, own the plantation because it would make him look bad is such a twisted thing to do. #auburnworldhistory

@karolinehistory I agree. I never knew to what extent the turmoil was to

[Mary Creed Christopher @mcmakinghistory]

It is so difficult for me to imagine lining through such a hard and dangerous time. The straight up brutality is terrifying. #auburnworldhistory

When a country unites through a common idea they are so much stronger. A demonstration of 20 million people is impossible for me to even comprehend. #auburnworldhistory

I feel like we so often live in a bubble. I remember hearing about this when it happened, but never knew to what extent it went to. So so important to be well informed not only of what's happening in your country, but also in your world. #auburnworldhistory

"And to some degree the mirror image confirms that which it’s trying to destroy." #auburnworldhistory

Upon completing this reading, I'm still slightly confused. Is neoliberalism more an idea and concept or something that is trying to be implemented? #auburnworldhistory

"So, unemployment at home and offshoring taking the jobs abroad, and a third component: technological change, deindustrialization through automation and robotization." #auburnworldhistory

@xDQMy44DRaxmcLy So scary to think of what could have happened had they not thought about this.

War time decisions: are they a politician's decision or a general's? #auburnworldhistory

Communication has come such a long way in the last century, and the impact it has had on the world has drastically changed every aspect of life #auburnworldhistory

The constant fear people must have felt during the Cold War not knowing whether or not our country would get bombed must have been excruciating #auburnworldhistory

@isabelle_genin I think it is really powerful that she doesn't just point out the wrong, but has a solution too.

"And when I screamed loud enough, they started to open that door just a little bit" This shows that using your voice really is powerful. #auburnworldhistory

"Then later, as these things began happening to me, I wondered if they were happening to you, and then I knew they must be. And I knew that you had no way to defend yourselves, as I had." She used her experience and voice to help those that couldn't #auburnworldhistory
