This is how it should be done

Example# 1
(Your words and opinion) In the past 200 years, when slavery was legal in the United States, black slaves were treated like animals, when they were bought and sold. (example, write in your own words) Early in the story, a young slave mother Lily Brown’s 2-year-old son was snatched from her since Sims thought he was going to grow quickly to work in the cotton field. (Chapter 2, Underground to Canada by Barbara Smucker, Penguin Group, 1977, pp. 11)(Explanation, your own words) No child should be removed from the parents especially when Willie was only 2 years old. Sims simply did not care about others’ feelings and he did the unthinkable by ripping the baby from his mother. (concluding statement) This proved that slavery was inhumane and cruel to the black slaves during that time.
