  Title : Keep On Walking 



Screenshoot of the cover

This story is about a black man named dave. He was a slave on a farm inTennessee.. one day he saw 2 of his master's boys aboard shouting as they would fall into the water and die. dave could have killed his master's son, because he had been slaved by his master. but he does not do that, he even tells his master that his son will fall into the river. and dave jumped in and saved the two children.
but dave has not gained the freedom when he saved his master's sons. he must still work in the field. if he does all that then he will get his freedom. dave continued to work hard that year, until he got his freedom as a black slave. he was already free from slavery but he was not as free as a white man.

 From this story I learned that we are not free when others say who we really are. We have people who walk around like slaves because they let others tell them who they are. I learned from dave, that when others do not accept you and do not see where you are, but he persists and keeps walking with the truth in his heart. so .. Keep walking when we know we're right. No matter what people shout about us, keep on walking with your truth.
