Welcome!

After reading The Interesting Narrative of Olaudah Equiano, we were fascinated by the towering journey Equiano took throughout his life, recounting his many voyages and his experience exploring the world. The text introduces many cultures and their corresponding beliefs to matters across the world. Interested about the places Equiano visited and their treatment of slaves in the 18th century, we ask:

How did people treat slaves around the world based on their cultural ideals in the 18th Century?

To answer this question, we "visited" places all across the globe: Barbados, Philadelphia, Africa (Essaka), and London. Please use the navigation tools above to explore our site. Hopefully you enjoy it (and learn a little something too)!
