My name is Mary and I am a slave. I am standing here with some other friends and we are thinking that we are tired of picking seeds from the cotton. It hurts our fingers and takes forever to do so. Our fingers tend to bleed almost all the time, it's a very hard job. We were so happy when we heard that Eli Whitney invented this amazing machine called the Cotton Gin. It allows us to separate the seeds from the cotton so much easier. It also takes us a lot less time to complete the task being asked to do.
Eli Whitney's invention brought us together in so many ways. It made our nation as a whole so much more effective. We are more efficent with our time. Having this new invention in our economy also allows us to gain more money. We can make more cotton at a faster pase. Which allows the demand of cotton go up. It helps us grow as a whole with one another.
