Hello Jullien. I like the blog post you created and u added writing of what it was about, maybe next time you can add a link to the song or your map so other people can see it.
ReplyDeleteKamusta Jullien, I really like reading your blog, I like how you include a photo of Harriet Tubman. When exactly did this happen? and why are there slaves? Overall, it's a very good blog.
