Educating Slaves?

I think former slaves werent really educated because they had to be working all the time. The children of the landowners learned are were educated but not the slaves. This was one of those many descriminating details that the African Americans went through in the past. They were treated very badly. I think that if they wanted to learn anyways there wasnt any time because of all the work they had to do. I think that they werent allowed either. Also from who would they be educated? So no, I think slaves were not educated.
