He speak on how his life was before he was captured by these thieves and how he and his sister were treated before being split up. He speaks about how he was astonished by how the ships they were captured on worked also.

Louisiana's Code Noir was defining the conditions or rules of slavery for the French. It also addressed free blacks and the relationship between a slave and their master. The code consists of a total of 54 articles.

What surprised me about this narrative story is that, whites split up those that were captured together. Equiano and his sister were captured together and stayed with each other for a but, only using each other for comfort before they were ripped apart from each other without even knowing.

What surprised me is that they were able to come up with a total of 54 articles of what free slaves can and cannot do, the relationship between slaves and masters and what free blacks can and cannot do. One of the articles that stuck out to me was the fifth article. It stuck out to me because you would think if they were doing they're job on Sundays or Holidays they would be able to, but instead that are confiscated.

I think the fact the slaves were under super and extreme supervision and every movement or action they make matters greatly. It should also be brought the light how the children were also affected by this, being born, they are automatically under the mistress of the house.

Louisiana's Code Noir leads on what happened to slaves and how they were treated out of these codes in Louisiana. An explanation or a point of someone during this time under the codes would be a good source because it could be explain how it affected their lives.

I think that this whole narrative should be included in the story of telling how slavery was in the U.S.. You get a glimpse of how how Equiano's life really is and how it may have been for other enslaved Africans. You get to see their perspective and she how they reacted to it.

The source speaks about how there are sides of slavery that aren't fully told and spoken about towards others. In the article, it was stated that "Forced labor was not uncommon....but enslavement had not been based on race."(2). The article then goes on to talk about the eventually the slave trade led to race as soon as other vendors began to trade as well such as Denmark and France.

What surprised me in the article is that it states "Some 12.5 million men, women and children of African descent were forced into the trans-Atlantic slave trade."(3) This surprises me mainly because, people and colonies seemed to be so focused on wealth and land they didn't even think to consider those people's actual lives. They considered them as properties and items.

From the article, I think it should be included on how slavery evolved quickly as soon as other vendors joined in the slave trade. It should also be included that some Natives were turned down as slaves just because they considered themselves in the Spanish colony or with the Spanish colony. Another thing that should be included is that how quick people were quick to take land just so they can enslave and take the people of that African land.

This can be connected with Equiano's story and how he was captured and didn't have a clue on what was going on during the time. Many of the slaves may have or were confused by everything that had been happening and why people were coming and taking them away from their home.

The story of Equiano gives an insight of what all happened during his life. Equiano could have experience what happened during Louisiana's Code Noir if it was during that time. He could have been apart of the 1629 Project with the trans-Atlantic slave trade.
