Reminiscences of My Life in Camp with the 33rd U.S. Colored Troops, Late 1st South Carolina Volunteers is a remarkable story told by a woman who escaped a life of slavery in time to serve as a nurse and an educator on behalf of the Union cause. Prior to the Civil War, half the wealth of the thriving Georgia economy resided in the enslaved population, which had reached close to half a million people in the early 1860s. To maintain control over this potentially volatile populace, the white community kept careful guard over their most potent weapon of all—knowledge. As long as slaves remained illiterate, they could be separated from their families and denied further means to communicate. Without last names and the ability to write them, slaves could be sold at will to a new master, their pasts erased in the process. Without literacy, the enslaved could be kept from new political debates fomenting dan- gerously in the newspapers of the North. A slave who was discovered writing often had the tips of his or her thumbs cut off. In Georgia, if a white person was caught teaching an enslaved person to read, they FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DUPLICATE susIe Bak er K InG TaY lor 35 were fined $500. If a black person was caught, they were fined $100 and received up to thirty-two lashes of the whip.1 Though Susie was born in Georgia in 1848 to the desperate world of plantation slavery, she had a powerful weapon on her side: a grandmother who believed in the power of education and desired freedom for her descendants. Dolly Reed lived forty miles from her daughter’s family but visited her grandchildren in the ironically named Liberty County a few times each year. Dolly hired a wagon for these trips so she could haul supplies from town to trade in the country; she returned home laden with farm goods to sell in the city. When Susie turned seven, Dolly invited Susie and her younger brother and sister to join her household in Savannah. Compared with rural Georgia, the city of Savannah seemed like a bastion of op- portunity for enslaved individuals. Savannah housed a thriving black community with churches and a wide variety of enterprises—some legal, and others not. Dolly Reed also enjoyed an unusual amount of latitude. It’s unknown whether Dolly was freed or enslaved, but through her trade enterprise and work in town, Reed saved thou- sands of dollars and managed her own household.2 Shortly after Susie’s arrival in Savannah, Dolly took Susie to meet Mary Woodhouse, a local seamstress who ostensibly appren- ticed children interested in learning her trade. Woodhouse’s twenty- five to thirty pupils entered her kitchen one at a time, but once the doors shut behind them, they got down to their real business: clan- destine learning. A network of these secret schools ran a circuitous route through the city of Savannah. The black population referred to the institutions as “bucket schools” because the children carried their schoolbooks at the bottom of buckets, wrapped in paper or covered with wares to keep the contraband textbooks safe from pry- ing eyes. In 1860, six to seven of these secret schools operated around Savannah. Julien Fromantin pretended to teach his students carpen- try while actually teaching them reading, writing, and arithmetic. Catherine DeVeaux and her daughter Jane also ran a successful FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DUPLICATE 36 W t oMen oF He blue and GraY bucket school for years, but the dangers were very real. James Porter, a talented musician and teacher who taught a more advanced cur- riculum, built a trapdoor in his house to hide the children in case of a raid.3 When Porter’s school was discovered, he was forced into temporary hiding. When James Simms was discovered, authorities made an example of him and sentenced him to a public whipping. Simms resumed teaching after his release, until threatened with fur- ther fines and arrest. He fled to Boston to wait out the war.4 Fully aware of the dangers of seeking out an education, Susie nonetheless became an eager and voracious pupil. After working with Ms. Woodhouse for two years, Susie continued her studies with Mary Beasley. By the time Susie turned eleven, Ms. Beasley told Dolly that she “had better get some one else” who could teach the girl more.5 Many would have said Susie knew far more than a slave would ever need to know, but Dolly wanted to help her eager grand- daughter, so, in spite of the dangers, she sought out new resources. Meanwhile, Susie turned to another potentially risky source to find the knowledge she desired: white children. A wealthy family that lived down the street had a daughter, Katie O’Connor, who was close to Susie’s own age. The girls became friends, and Susie begged Katie to share her books and lessons. Katie’s mother reluc- tantly agreed as long as they kept the meetings strictly secret, par- ticularly from Katie’s father. For four glorious months, the girls met for clandestine lessons, but the meetings came to an abrupt close when Katie entered a convent. Eager for more knowledge, Susie noticed James Blouis, their landlord’s teenaged son. James attended the local high school and drilled with the local Savannah Volunteer Guards; Susie begged him to share his books and lessons.

People inhabited Georgia long before its official “founding” on February 12, 1733. The land that became our state was occupied by several different groups for over 12,000 years. The intent of this standard is for students to recognize the long-standing occupation of the region that became Georgia by American Indians and the ways in which their culture was impacted as the Europeans sought control of the region.
