Answer:

Here's this for everyone else as well:

During the era of slavery in the United States, the education of enslaved African Americans, except for religious instruction, was discouraged and eventually made illegal in most of the Southern states. So after the Civil War, They were given very-to-no education by only giving them the most basic in academics. After Laura seeing this, Laura's beliefs were to break that limit and treat African Americans as equals
