slavery images and the Equiano accounts

It is unbelievable to me how horribly mistreated the Africans were by the English. So many innocent people died, for absolutely no reason. They crammed hundreds of Africans into ships with the worst stench, and horrible sound. People dying right next to each other. Blacks were beaten for not eating. They were on ships for months. I could never imagine what they went through, I have so much sorrow for those people. The English even went as far as killing each other. It was a horrible time, and I hope nothing this big or drastic ever happens again.
