Thomas Jefferson on Slavery and Race

B. Jefferson on Slavery and Race The terms of the emancipation proposal considered by Virginia legislators were all slaves born after the act would go on with their parents to tillage, arts or sciences, until girls (18) and boys (21) would colonize to places that render the most proper out with arms and domestic animals to declare them free and independent and extend the bond paper and protection.Jefferson believes blacks are inferior to whites, he differentiates the two races by stating the obvious first, color, figure, hair, odor, he bidwise states how they are harder working and dont require as much sleep. He also includes how adventuresome they are, they desire love more and are more sentiment and their griefs are transient. This quality is the germ of all education in him. Slavery influenced know and other whites in ways of creating boisterous passions that created degrading comments to star another.This is spread through the children and other whites seeing or being rais ed only one way of seeing a master degrade his slaves. Slavery influenced slaves that they prefer ways that avoid areas that can or have made work for them. Jefferson give tongue to l tremble for my country when I reflect that God is Just because e believes slavery is not right, he hopes for the total emancipation and that slavery is disposed in the order of events with the consent of the masters. Jeffersons hopes for the end of slavery differed from his fears because he hoped of an emancipation, which happened. Rather than slaves taken from masters which would anger them. Jeffersons notes do not seem to be something regular of the era or that most would agree on, slavery and segregation were very strong and blacks were not even considered or thought of to have human rights like they have today during that era.
