Boston South Side, Mary. Daya Chapel.

It is a modest community chapel named after a great woman who was hanged in Boston Common in 1660.

People don't remember why she died, but they know exactly why she was great.

Her famous quote, "My life is nothing compared to the pursuit of truth," has become a household name in Boston, and has long since transcended time and become one of the historical landmarks of Boston's struggle for freedom.

It is for this reason that the locals borrowed her name when building the community chapel.

Even in the era of Ms. Daiya's existence, the southern district was still a mudflats of silt.

Even if Ms. Daya was probably pursuing something else, she would not have wondered whether slaves had the right to pursue freedom.

However, to make the slave feel free, this is exactly what Mary is. The original intention of the establishment of Daya Chapel.

Boston's South Side is often referred to by Bostonians as a new district, a manufacturing district.

Three times the size of the North Side, the land is home to a series of new steam mills, and was once the most developed manufacturing center in all of New England.

After Boston's independence, it became one of the most developed manufacturing bases in the new United States.

Countless raw materials such as daily necessities, hardware, clothing, and even guns and cannons come here through land and sea transportation, turn into finished products under the dense steam, and then be transported to the corners of the world through merchant ships that fill the entire coastline.

At the end of the 18th century, the pyramid ecology of American factories was actually very interesting.

Skilled and educated whites acted as managers and foremen, occupying the top of the pyramid alone, followed by the broken houses and child laborers that made up the backbone, and at the bottom, and at the same time, the slaves collected by the operators through various channels.

Black, White, Native American ...... Occasionally, there are indigenous people from Asia and Oriental visitors who think they are wandering for gold.

After all, industry is a much more complex production behavior than agriculture, and the requirements for producers are higher.

The operators collected slaves to reduce labor costs, but after a period of exploration, they gradually realized that the plantation-style management model did not save their costs.

The main reason is the general lack of initiative of the workers.

Workers who lack initiative learn inefficiently and become proficient at an alarmingly slow pace.

It takes five broken houses for a foreman to do, three child laborers for a broken house to do, two Oriental slaves for a child laborer, and three white slaves, or five colored slaves, or twenty indigenous Asians for what an Oriental can do......

The slaves toiled in the workshops with numb eyes, and they could not see much output in a day, but they never forgot about hunger.

They eat more than anyone else.

Even if the food was only black bread baked from sawdust and earth, gentlemen who wanted to throttle and get rich began to feel overwhelmed.

This is definitely going to change.

The gentlemen gathered together to discuss and found the problem as quickly as possible.

Compared to the foreman, the slave was poorly educated.

Compared to the broken settlements, slaves lacked freedom.

Compared to child labor, slaves lack honor.

Compared with Oriental customers...... Slaves lacked nothing, on the contrary, they seemed to know too much......

Brainstorming was a good thing, and the key to hindering the slaves' wealth creation was suddenly revealed. 59 Books

Since upbringing is God-given, and it is known that it cannot be erased at all, what the slave lacks is freedom and honor.

Slaves must be given freedom and glory, and all human beings must be created equal under the mercy of the Lord!

Gentlemen act.

They organized a committee to review the deed of sale, and first singled out the evil clauses in the deed that hindered equality, such as working in a flail, no childbearing, no choice, food and shelter, etc., and gave the slaves full attention and emancipation.

Subsequently, the Commission added a reasonable and generous remuneration to the new contract on the basis of the remuneration and benefits of child labour.

He worked sixteen hours a day, was paid a minimum of two pence a day, and the workshop had an unconditional obligation to take care of lunch.

In order to supervise itself, the committee also set up a joint union of the Southern District, composed entirely of foremen, to fight for the rights of slaves and build a solid and powerful backstage for them.

The slaves were thus freed!

Although theoretically speaking, no one has radically proposed the abolition of slavery, but in practice, except for life and death, the slave owners in the southern district have given up everything.

The new slave contract is no different from that of a free man.

As long as they worked in the workshop, the slaves were free to choose where to live, to decide on the ingredients for dinner, to breed and herd freely, to love and unite freely, and to pass on their sacred possessions to their offspring.

Even if they were to avoid their nominal masters and go to work in the workshops of other gentlemen, their masters would have nothing to do with them.

Once freedom is granted, it naturally begins to exude a refreshing fragrance.

The community of workers is also born out of this fragrance.

The gentlemen needed to make the slaves see the value of change as soon as possible, and the union, which was instructed to do so, quickly selected obedient blacks or Indians, and helped them to become self-reliant in the form of rewards or loans.

They soon became successful models in the early days of slave emancipation, gathering in the corners and open spaces of the Southern Side to form new communities of workers who pursued higher needs than basic survival, such as faith.

That's what community houses of worship are all about.

But the priests are to eat.

After all, time is still short, and even successful people among slaves can hardly come up with more valuable wealth than strength, so pure community houses of worship are different from churches all over the city, and believers have no reason to support others except to support themselves.

As a result, the quality of the clergy has declined rapidly, and within a month of its establishment, it has been reduced from the personal appointment of the bishop of the region to the embarrassing situation of everyone with lofty ideals.

These days, a mysterious missionary comes to Mary. Daya Chapel, with a hooded cloak on his body and an iron mask on his face, which does not show a single skin.

He came to the chapel every week, and with a delicate and delicious sacrament, he gently and passionately preached a slightly special doctrine of the Lord among the workers.

"Color, people are born with their own colors. Black, White, Yellow, Brown...... Colorful colors make up a colorful world, each color is a gift from God, and each color should have the same weight. ”

"But there are people who take it upon themselves to demarcate the colors in their own way. God is white, the saints are white, Adam is white, and all nobility is white......"

"White is the original sin! Once color becomes the reason for enslavement and enslavement, color becomes the original sin! ”

"Why are some colors inherently inferior? Why are some colors not allowed to fight for their rights? Why does a struggle turn into disloyalty in the end? Why do you need to fight for your life to survive? ”

"White is the original sin! If white is not, then being born not white is the original sin! ”

The missionary took a deep breath.

"Okay, today we will talk about the Gospel of Matthew, let us praise the Lord's benevolence together......"
