How the Civil war Personally effected me…

• The civil war personally effected me because now I am friends with a lot of different colored people the war ended lots of things. The war ended slavery which was a big deal for us people. If the war never happened who know where we would be right now I am so thankful for all the people who risked their lives for us.
