What is your reaction to the description of life on a slave ship?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

My reaction to the description of life on a slave ship is that we are very lucky to live in times in which slavery is prohibited because the description let us know how crude, rude, unjust, and horrible it was.

Explanation:

Two reasons back my perspective. The first one is that after many people understood the effects of slavery on people. They decided that slavery should be stopped because it was unfair, we are all equals and we have the same rights. Second, slaves used to go under so many horrible things, like work to death being punished if they didn't work even if they were tired. Punish other slaves, eat bad food, and never being able to do something they wanted.

Answer 2
Answer: Very unfair.The people on the ships didn't even have a choice on whether on going or staying.And the conditions were horrible.Not being able to even stand up or go to the bathroom in a acceptable way.Not being able to eat or sleep normally. Very unfair
