To teach a slave to read or write was illegal. Back then it was thought they would be "misfit" to work in the fields or in the big house. So they never taught them. Some, of course, taught themselves by listening carefully to what the overseer and master said and tried to learn it themselves. Or to repeat it numerous times. So to teach a slave to read or write was illegal back in the olden, dark, days.
It was believed that to teach a slave to read or write was to invite and uprising.
