This picture says a lot in very few words. It is a slave in chains and below him says "am i not a man and a brother?" Which are very strong words the slaves on the boats were not treated like men they were treated like animals. They were all packed in with little food and no cleanliness at all. The slaves did not understand why they were treated like this because they knew they were men and brothers and sons and some fathers. The slaves could not ask this question though because they knew that horrible things would be done to them if they did question their owners or masters. I think that this picture says it all how the men on the boats felt on their journey over here.
