Fear

Another theme of my journey is fear. This because in my journey I go through many things... one being fear, it ties together with escaping. At the Riley plantation there is the fear of being whipped. The fear fear of Sims. The scary man is fat and disgusting and whips you to make himself feel better. While escaping the fear of Sims is still there. The slave hunters are always after you. The bloodhounds with their ferocious barks and snarls send fear through anybodies body. Losing Lester and Adam, having to go on by ourselves. The fact that somebody could find you or see you. When you have to trust someone you just met. The fact that they could betray you. Or when Julilly walks right into a village to buy food. They hold a gun to your head, I'm sure you would be scared to. People coming, while your sitting helplessly in a tree. Or when you hide in a mattres as a slave hunter is in the same room. On our journey, fear surrounds us the entire way.

  1. This is Sims, your slave trader you should be afraid because maybe one day I might go to Canada and kidnap you and your friend Junlilly and whip you until you can't feel at all. Also no one would be around seeing you bring whipped. So don't feel safe just yet that day might come and you should of been scared of me. Me whipping you is just a way that makes me feel better. That's all....
