Mr. Jones own the cotton plantation
and many slaves.

One day he was talking
to the owner of the plantation

next to his and mr. Jones was 
lamenting the fact that

times were tough

he was having to work his slaves

harder than ever

and was having trouble with some

of the being disobedient or 
trying to run away

The other plantation owner said he knew
someone who could help

Day One

One day mr. Jones called his slaves 
together, so a man named

mr. Smith could talk to them

before beginning 
mr. smith whispered to mr. Jones

whatever I say do not contradict me or
interfere I promise you your slave

troubles will end

My name is mr. Smith he said
to the slaves

and this may be the happiest day of your
lives from today forward you will no

longer be slaves but freemen

mr. Jones was so shocked he started
to step forward but mr. Smith

gestured for him to remain silent

he did, Only because the other plantation
owner had spoken so highly of

mr. Smith's skills.

You are no longer a
property of mr. Jones

mr. Smith continued.

You are free no more would 
you be forced to labor for

the benefit of mr. Jones

Now you can work for yourselves.

Now the slaves were all

murmuring and looking at
each other

Many were smiling. Many were looking
puzzled.

In fact you are now free to

leave the plantation whenever you want

mr. Smith said. However, since we are
surrounded by other plantations if you

leave, some other plantation owner will
likely claim you as his own the moment

you set foot on his property
leave some other plantation owner will
likely play new is his own the moment

you set foot on his property

so I urge you not to risk your new found
freedom by doing something so foolish

Instead, I suggest you stay here no
longer as slaves but is willing

participants

and part owners of this plantation yes
this is now your plantation

mr. Jones bit his tongue keep from
objecting. For now we might as well leave

mr. Jones in charge said mr.
Smith

Since he is the only one with any
experience in running a plantation which

is quite a complicated thing to manage

but he will no longer be your master but
just another worker on the plantation

in fact he will now be using his
organizational and management skills to

serve you

whatever problems you may have had with
him before you are now all equals

and you need each other to make this
work if we all cooperated and work together

we can all reap the benefits together

in honor of this happy occasion I
present you this new symbol togetherness

and cooperation this flag which will be
the AM remove the new free

Jones plantation he held up a new flag
but most of those listing were still to

amaze to respond

and this should be a model mister Smith
announced we work together as freemen

for our mutual benefit pledging
allegiance to the Jones plantation which

smith was serious

former slaves applauded entry day too

was dismissed said at the beginning of
the next meeting so we can all share the

benefits

we all know that it takes a lot of
effort to make cotton plantation work

just because you're all free doesn't
mean you can't stop working

infractions you now working for
yourselves I expect you to work even
just because you're all free doesn't
mean you can't stop working

infractions you now working for
yourselves I expect you to work even

harder than ever before

but now with pride and joy in knowing
that you're working for yourselves

of course I still have to be rules if
everyone just does whatever it wants the

presentation will produce anything this
experiment will fail it will all stop

and skills to this endeavor

day three the next morning mister
schmidt et a grim expression on his face

is the daily meeting began

I have an unpleasant duty to do today he
said

yesterday Charles was cocky pinter
McCartney picked

presumably to sell for his own personal
profit that is against the rules

that is still in for that Charles must
be punished

two men tied Charles to the whipping
post I take no joy in this

Smith continued but you must understand
if we do not maintain order if we do not

have rules that we all abide by then the
plantation will fail

and we will all suffer with cracked
against Charles

back but if we all pitch in for the
common good and we can all prosper

be in free doesn't mean you should be
selfish and greedy we missed each do our

San duties and obey the rules and then
we can all benefit

any jury will receive your appropriate
share the profits

a young man named channel step forward
but if you and mister Jones aside the

rules in with us if we disobey

how's that any different from what we
had before how can you say that

mister smith et I'm shocked your slave
before now you free

they still need to be managed in
organized by those best qualified to do

so

do you know how to run a plantation
jamil

well-known he answered but it will free
why do we get no say in what the rules

are and how things work

I'm surprised you're ingratitude mister
Smith answered

not original plantation is run so you're
in no position in making decisions about

how things are done here

you don't seem to appreciate all the
things mister Jones Ryan sure you from

protecting you from all the outside
trash

you know nothing about those who would
come here capture and slave you're not

for mister Jones protection

to making sure that you all have food
and housing tools to work with the or

cared for when sick injured and so on

there wouldn't be a plantation at all no
cotton a pic know when to plant and

harvest if not for him

you should be grateful that he's made
possible the level of comfort you now

here

your lives really far worse if not for
him nevertheless as creating robert is

rich in this endeavor from now on it
each maiden

any worker may have to manage to ask
questions or suggestions or complaints

with that the workers all seem satisfied
and headed out again to the fields

to pick the cotton day for

I have a big announcement mister smith
said is the daily meeting began

mister Jones cousin is here not just to
visit and see our project is coming

along

it has been decided that from now on you
will be deciding who will manage the

plantation

of course this job can be done by just
anyone but every three months we will

have a special meeting

there which all the workers will vote on
whether we think mister Jones should run

the plantation

or whether we think his cousin mister
Johnson to run the plantation
the plantation

or whether we think his cousin mister
Johnson to run the plantation

that means that ultimately you line
charge because you will be deciding

which man one run and things on your
behalf

if you don't like the way things are
being managed you now have the power to

change it

amazed and pleased the workers headed
out again to the fields

pick the cotton

day

past months past a year past

and the plantation continue to operate
as before sometimes mister Jones was in

charge sometimes mister Johnson was in
charge

but the day-to-day routine state exactly
the same the workers were card

long hours every day and still had
little to show for it

every day the meeting would begin with
the mall reciting the Jones plantation

model

we work together as freemen for mutual
benefit

pledging allegiance to the Jones
plantation which stands for Prosperity

Liberty and justice for all one day
mister schmidt announced

same rules as to say a few words this
mornin and whatever the rest was racing

to his ideas and opinions we are all
free here

and that means we're all allowed to
speak our minds so 70 you have to manage

begin Samuel step forward

looking scared I was excited when all
this started

he began glancing nervously at mister
schmidt and mister Jones

but don't you will see what's happened
here nothing's changed

we're all still slaves grumbles a
disagreement from the crowd

they tell us what to do and with those
who don't they still make all the rules

and punishes we disobey

sailors make suggestions and complain
about things but they never really

change anything

they let us choose between mister Jones
and mister Johnson

but what's the difference the situation
stays the same

we do all the work and they take as much
as they want and decide how much they'll

let us keep

they live in luxury made rich by the
cotton we pick

we do all the work and have to build our
own hearts grow our own food intake air

ourselves

daily was just another we don't rule to
run away

this is not freedom we're all still
slaves

label change the words they use but
nothing else has changed

they say we're all free and equal but
we're not they command and we obey

that's not freedom that's not a quality
they say were free to leave but all that

means is that we're free to be someone
else's slave

why should we work /url by the rules we
didn't agree to this

they made the system they forced it on
us the control in rob us

and call it freedom them to see you into
thinking that being able to choose which

slave master your workforce the same as
being free

it's not open your honor's if you keep
what you produce the college Stephen

when they take what you produce they
call it share it

and fair distribution can't you see that
this is all

your time user Shin mister Smith
announced calmly

had his gesture to supervisors Graeme
Samuel by the arms and let into the

whipping post

I'm Saraceno but you broken the rules

their rules against encouraging others
not to work in encouraging others to

break the rules

you're only hurting all those with your
discontentment and you're complaining in

your disobedience

the whip fell in central let out a grunt
without rules without order

all would be lost without law there
would be chaos

we can just behave as wild animals each
doing whatever he pleases

we must all follow the plan all do our
duty for the betterment of everyone

and those who do not must be punished
the with fell again in blood flowed

freely from said

back jamil it is you who are stealing
from the others

when you don't do your sign work you are
making more work for others

when you disobey the rules it is you who
are endangering the future everyone else

here

you are the thief you other criminal you
are the one trying to destroy the

arrangement that keeps us all safe and
prosperous

at every lash of the whip the other
workers cheered louder and louder some

yelling

curses Samuel being spoiled and selfish
you complain about everything talking as

if you're oppressed but you are the one
ruling today

you are the one key pressure being all
we could be it is you're greeted your

rebelliousness that is hurting all of us

they all play by the rules mister said
gesturing at the others

what makes you think that you don't have
to you think you're above the law

they're allowed yells agreement is the
whip fell again

we must maintain or mister smith
proclaimed

to make this plantation great to make it
so that we can all be happy and

prosperous

to have the society we want there has to
be rules

we all have to contribute our fair share
this great endeavor

and we cannot tolerate actions and
attitudes that seek to undermine the

amazing things

that together as freemen we have
achieved and will continue to achieve

mister Jones was mine she gave mister
smith pat on the back

the crowd was cheering so loudly that
none of them had noticed

that showed died

what you have been taught

government and politics is no more
accurate or reasonable

than what mister smith top the slaves if
you're ready to look through the veil
