Aaliyah+Kibwe


 * Name**: Aaliyah Kibwe


 * Date of Birth**: January 11, 1784


 * Gender**: Female


 * Race**: African-American


 * Family Members:** Ann Thomas


 * Occupation**:I work at my masters Brewery


 * Current State of Residence**: Massachusetts


 * Hometown (City and State)**: Boston, Massachusetts


 * Political Views:** If I had the chance to vote I would have voted for John Adams.He supports manufacturers, like my master's brewery.


 * Political Views on Current Issues:**
 * Native American Removal- I think some of the white people are over reacting who want the Indians removed are being over dramatic. Obviously if their land wasn't threatened then they wouldn't be doing these horried things they are said to be doing. We don't even know if all of these statements that were said about the Indians are accurate or if they are just assumptions. I think in some ways it is good because we are gaining land, but also I think we could have reached a different resolution.
 * Fugitive Slave Act- I am against the fugitive slave act 100 percent. My master told me about it when it was first announced. I feel that if we were able to get away from slavery then we shouldn't be chased down, and brought back. I am also against this act because I don't think it is fair to anyone to be deputized, and forced to chase a slave. I feel that everyone is entitled to make their own choices, which includes not being forced to chase slaves.


 * Favorite Activities and Interests**: I like to make maple sugar, and I love to play marbles.


 * Nineteenth Century Reform Movement:** I overheard my master talking about an Education Reform, it's supposed to get kids in school so that they can have a good education. I also heard that such as a single class could have 80 students! My master also said that the U.S. has the highest literacy rate so far. I guess that's a good thing. This education reform sounds like a good idea to me.


 * Civil War:** I think it's about time that the Union has taken action about slavery! I am overjoyed that all slaves finally have a chance to be free. I think Abraham Lincoln is one of the most important reasons that we are now taking action, and I support him 100%. I just hope that the Union can win this war, and set me free.
