History

charle [14.2K]4 years ago
8 0

The white Americans didn't want the slaves to learn how to read and write because if they did the slaves would've read the bible and knew that it was about them.

They would've known that Africa was the motherland and that they were the first people on earth and that they were worth more than the white Americans told them.  The white Americans wanted to control the slaves and keep them in fear of them that's why they beat them every time they caught a slave trying to read it. Even when the slave pastors would try to have church the white Americans would tell them what to preach and if they didn't do as they said the white Americans would beat them or even kill them.

Bakit mahalaga ang Filipino subject?​
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Para sa akin, mahalaga at kailangan natin alamin kung ano nga ba ang kahalagahan ng filipino sabdyek na ito. Nililinang ng sabdyek na ito ang mga bagay sa lipunan, kung ano nga ba ang tamang paraan ng pag gamit ng wikang filipino nang sa gayon ay maibahagi natin sa iba ang ating sariling wika. Bilang tao at mamayan sa ating lipunan kinakailangan ito sapagkat dito huhubugin ang iyong pakikipag komunikasyon. Natutunan ko sa sabdyek na ito ano ang wastong pag gamit ng nga salita batay sa kahulugan at gamit nito. Nagkakaroon ng isang maayos na lipunan sa sandaling magkaroon ng mabuting ugnayan ang mga tao sa pamayanan. Nakadagdag din sa aking kaalaman ang mga bagay bagay katulad ng pag gawa ng blog at vblog, ng komposisyon, repleksyong papel,dyornal at diary. Ang pagmamahal sa asignaturang filipino ay katumbas ng pagpapaunlad at patuloy na pagtangkilik at ganoon din ang paggamit na wasto rito.

Kung kayat marapat lamang na pahalagahan ang asignatura na ito. Naipapakita ang pagpapahalaga dito dahil naipapamalas dito ang kakayahan ng bawat Filipino na unawain at linangin para sa patuloy na pag unlad at pag babago kasabay ng agos ng panahon at konteksto
