Slave Fifth response

The chapter that I felt was my favorite and that I can talk about is The Fugitive Slave Law. This chapter to me felt like it was giving me more about what slaves went through then other chapters. The main reason was Luke. Luke was what I consider a person I could almost hear when he spoke. The things that Luke went through while he was a slave was to me almost beyond cruel. The master even though he kept getting weaker and weaker still had some energy to beat Luke, and I can’t grasp my mind around that. This man is dying, and barely has energy at all, except for when it comes to beating Luke, that is just sick. That is why this chapter just jumped out at me as the chapter I can say is my favorite, not because of the beating, but of the reality.
