Why did slaves learn to read if it was outlawed by slave code

answer: to communicate with people on the other side.

explanation:

the wants of children today than in colonial times are very different. as well as the roles. children now have electronics such as phones, tablets, tvs, etc. back then, kids didn’t have electronics. in the colonial times, children were expected to their parents in their work. but now, children are expected to go to school.
