CHAPTER 1
Miss Susan

“What is this?”
Narrator

screamed Miss Susan to seven-year-old Harriet.
Miss Susan, as the slaves were told to call her, had run her finger along the top of the dining room table.
It had picked up dust.
Miss Susan

“Answer me, you little brat!”
Narrator

It was the fourth time Harriet had tried to dust the furniture.
She had done exactly as she was told, but for some reason she kept doing it wrong.
And every time she did it wrong, Miss Susan grabbed the rawhide whip above the fireplace and beat her.
Now, she was reaching for the whip again.
Harriet

“But Miss Susan,”
Narrator

Harriet pleaded, her voice shaking,
Harriet

“I done swept and dusted just like you told me.
I . . .”
But it was no use.
The whip was already cutting into her skin, leaving marks that would last the rest of her life.
Miss Susan

“You are doing this on purpose just to be bad!”
Narrator

Miss Susan shouted as she hit tiny Harriet again and again.
Miss Susan

“No one could possibly be so stupid.
Not even a slave child!”
