My friend's kid has a homework assignment, and the question is:
Explain the following quote (from Uncle Tom's Cabin):" The worst use you can put a man is to hang him. No; there is another use that a man can be put to the is WORSE!"
I have never read the book, but I am assuming by looking at the question that the explanation is that enslaving a person is worse than hanging them. I'm not sure how detailed an answer a 5th grade teacher is looking for though.
