Response to Robert Cruz's Blog.

 This blog was very well written. It was easy to understand you made your points and opinions very clear. You mentioned how Tannenbaum claimed that slaves in Brazil were treated better; you gave supporting details, and gave your opinions as well. My suggestion for this blog when writing the revision would be to be more specific on how cruel the U.S was towards slaves. So that way you can really show the reader the difference between the ways Brazil treated their slaves. You did well in supporting the way Brazil treated their slaves and going on to talk about the way they could work their way out of slavery. I would also suggest to not starting your second paragraph with a question being that you already asked a question in the introduction. Instead maybe you could go on to talk about how the color of their skin played a part in the separation from others. You kept saying perhaps and maybe most of the time in your second paragraph. That made it seem as if there wasn't any solid information to depend on. It would be more informative if you made it a statement or went back to one of Tannenbaums claims on the topic. Other than that I think it shouldn’t be too hard to revise this blog. Overall you were good in making your point and should only have to change some stuff to make it even better. :)
