As she raised Esi there were subtle hints and nods to her not liking fire, which built up to the reveal that Maame was also Effia's mother.]]> 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090025 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090026 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090026 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090027 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090027 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090028 Effia married a British man and left her village to live on the coast with him. This leads her to have a different view on the relationship between her people and the British. Even though she knows there are people being shipped out as "cargo", she doesn't seem to care all too much. She obviously knows it's not good, but at the same time, she is married to this kind, caring, British man. Maybe I read/interpreted it wrong, but that is kinda what I got from her perception of the relations with the British.]]> 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090028 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090031 Que really struggles with his identity throughout the chapter. I think he was struggling with his personal feelings towards Cudjo, but expectations didn't allow him to express them at all. Quey is also expected to do what he is told because he grew up in the castle surrounded by white men who had a higher status than he did.]]> 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090031 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090033 * in a family that works in the slave trade

Both were taken out to Fanteland, but had totally different experiences.]]> 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090042 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090044 From what we learn about Ness in her chapter is that she has a rough life, as expected being a slave. She lost her mother Esi, lost her husband, and lost her son. She had been beaten so many times and has been working in the fields constantly. Another thing to note is her connection with Pinky. Even though Ness didn't care to interact with anyone, she cared for Pinky and enjoyed her company. This may be because of her son Kojo.]]> 2020-11-20 13:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090044 lbeit2441 https://padlet.com/lbeit2441/18pnk6ss75nt42aq/wish/945090045 * lives as a free black man with his family
