1. What do you think of the community/family feeling that exists at Fort Mose?
2. How would you react if you were Amari and carried Clay's child? What name would you choose for the child?
3. What existed inside Polly and Amari that eventually led them to freedom? Do you think you could survive the journey that these girls went through? Explain.

  1. 1. I think that the community there is kind and loving. They welcome everyone and try to save people from slavery.
    2. I would be slightly panicked but also happy that I were with child. I would name the child Gratis, meaning free in Afrikaans.

  2. 1. I think the community was welcoming and kind. They didn't shut out anyone based on anything.
    3. Strength in Amari was what eventually led them to freedom. I don't think I could have survived the journey that the girls went through because I wouldn't have anything to live for. But, I would try.
