Blog Post #6: Evaluation of Reagan Hall's Post

I completely agree with Raegan's idea about Linda (Harriet Jacobs) being very different from other black women slaves because she fights against what her masters ask.  Most women slaves at that time would just obey what is asked of them, but Linda did things such as hide in her grandmother's house and run away from Dr. Flint that made her rebellious.  Another thing that stood out to me was her dedication to finding her children.  I know that in this day in age parents have the right to have their children, but I feel that most other black women just faced the reality of letting their children go back in those days.  Linda would not accept the idea of losing her children.
