Dinner with the sluts

Pocahontas: Heyyyy Galileo ;)

Malan: Hey babe..

Sacagawea: Hellooo :D

Galileo: Hey there ladies.

Malan: What’s going to be the highlight of this dinner tonight?

Pocahontas: Well Galileo, We could talk about you and I? ;)

Sacagawea: Or we could talk about something important?

Pocahontas: Like?

Galileo: How bout them Yankee’s?

Malan: Uhm no, Boston all the way.

Galileo: Alright then, what about Triangular Trade?

Sacagawea: Anything is better than Pocahontas going on and on about how she…..

Pocahontas: Give it a rest Sacagawea!

Sacagawea: So what exactly is a triangular trade system?

Galileo: The Triangular Trade was a route to receive slaves.

Galileo: They would then carry the slaves back to the West Indies.

Pocahontas: Would they go shopping with the money they got from selling the slaves?

Galileo: No Pocahontas, traders would take their profits and buy more molasses.

Malan: So they would trade human beings for a sugar product?

Sacagawea: That’s really messed up.

Galileo: Yes, it is messed up. But it’s true. The saddest parts that the slaves were treated so harshly that some of them didn't even make it to the West Indies.

Malan: How many slaved would each trader purchased?
Galileo: Well actually, traders were so greedy that they wanted to bring as many slaves as possible.

Sacagawea: Then how would the slaves all fit on the ship?

Galileo: The slaves were chained and crammed together below the deck.

Pocahontas: That must have sucked! How did any of them manage to get their beauty sleep?

Sacagawea: They didn’t have to sleep to look beautiful, unlike you.

Galileo: Lets get back on subject ladies. There was hardly any sitting room or standing room. The slaves didn’t even have fresh air. The air was so stifling that some suffocated to

    Often, people view slavery as cruel, inhumane, unjustifiable, and brutal. However, slavery was not as atrocious as believed. Many slaves respected their owners and enjoyed serving them, while others loathed them. As time proceeded, many slaves were freed, unfortunately, many of them were treated as if they weren’t. In the excerpts from Twelve Years of a Slave and Betty Cofer, there is an opposition between how the slaves were treated along with the genesis of slavery, however, the dialect between the two pieces is similar.…

    “In such times, Black slaves in America were often treated better than White employees, as the slaves could be quite expensive to buy, and therefore were looked after as an economic asset. The Economist has estimated that in 1753 an African slave from the Gold Coast would cost £16 (about UK£1,000 or US$1,650 in today's money), and in the West Indies would fetch up to £35.” Frederic Olmsted also witnessed black slaves being treated better than white slaves. In this recount he tells of an overseer saying, "the niggers are worth too much to be risked here; if the Paddies are knocked overboard or get their backs broke, nobody loses anything."…

    According to the narrative of Frederick Douglass, during the 19th Century, the conditions slaves experienced were not only cruel, but inhumane. It is a common perception that “cruelty” refers to the physical violence and torture that slaves endure. However, in this passage, Douglass conveys the degrading treatment towards young slaves in the plantation, as if they were domesticated animals. The slaves were deprived of freedom and basic human rights. They were not only denied of racial equality, they weren’t even recognized as actual human beings.…

    “The closeness of the place, and the heat of the climate, added to the number in the ship, which was so crowded that each had scarcely room to turn himself, almost suffocated us.” (p.171) The extreme lack of room just described is only one of the terrible conditions in which slaves were kept in transport; just like barn animals would be kept. These people were truly treated like garbage and were extremely disrespected as basic human beings. In fact, “Estimates for the total number of Africans imported to the New World by the slave trade range from 25 million to 50 million; of these, perhaps as many as half died at sea during the Middle Passage experience.”…

    Before this weeks study I knew the Atlantic slave trade had a wide reach but the slave trade database brought my understanding to a new level. An unfathomable number of lives were loss and families torn about by lowering a human being to nothing more than an animal or property. The lives of the slaves were seen as disposable and many did not even survive the voyage by sea. Through our study of the Trans-Atlantic database I was able to learn how far the slave trade stretched and the number of human beings were taken and imprisoned to work while being tortured mentally and physically against their will paints a bleak picture of what this period in history was like by mans moral standards. “It is difficult to believe in the first decade of the twenty-first century that just over two centuries ago, for those European’s who thought about the issue, the shipping of enslaved Africans across the Atlantic was morally indistinguishable from shipping textiles, wheat, or even sugar.” (Eltis,…

    During the 1700-1800s, slave ships were vile because of what happened before, during, and after the transport. In the fist place, slavers used to capture people of different villages in Africa to use them as slaves. Then, the traders took them to forts where they made the captives wait until the slave ships arrived. The captains normally fit between 500 and 800 slaves in the ships which were going to venture in long trips of several weeks. Once they got to their destination, traders and captains sold the slaves to different traders, to other countries, or to people who had a lot of money to offer for the slaves.…

At that time, the Europeans were the strongest people on the earth, in terms of firearms and navigation technologies.
