Ch. 17 Sec. 1 Questions
Before the Civil War, slaves could not receive patents on their inventions, so slaveholders often received the credit. Some historians, for example, have speculated that Jo Anderson, a slave held by Cyrus McCormick, made vital contributions to the invention of the McCormick Harvester, yet Anderson received no credit for his contributions.
Do you think this is fair? Explain

I don't think it was fair at all. Slavery its self was not fair. Treating people with so much disrespect is wrong in every way. We all should have treated each other how we want to be treated. & still to this day we all should treat one another with respect.
