Match each quotation from "The People Could Fly with the correct historical fact on the right
They couldn't take their wings across
Enslaved African Americans passed
the water on the slave ships
down their heritage through stories
Enslaved people were crowded onto
Say they flew away to Freedom
ships and sent overseas

plantations and fled north to freedom
They say that the children of the ones
who could not fly told their children
Enslaved workers were forced to work
all day in cotton fields
