RE: Emancipation (Short Poetry)

in #poetry7 years ago

Nice peom. It gives us a glimpse of how those who were taken as slaves suffered. Slavery was very inhuman. Looking at how slaves were transported from the shores of Africa, being packed in dungeons of castles and then into ships inhaling the constant irritating fishy smell of the sea. And being subjected to inhuman treatment from their masters talking of rape, forced labour and the likes. We thank God that it has been abolished.
