Would you make the choice to run away or stay enslaved in the South?

If i were to make a choice i would run away although the large risk of getting killed it would be completely worth it for me for many reasons. First of all i wouldn't go through the abuse most slaves go through. Secondly i would be able to care for myself instead of not being able to do anything. Finally, if i were to die then i could die happily knowing i wasn't under control and was free.

run away, This is a risky option which could result in death but in my opion i would rather risk my life then have someone own and controll me for life. the jounery would be long and scary but i personaly would risk my life too be free and start a family in a free land so no one could own me or my family.
