 * = Kunte Kinte ||= May 1763 || Dear Diary,

Today was no the greatest day of my life. Today I was herding the Goats with Umpalumpa while a wild appeared and started attacking the goats. My heart was racing and I was worried father would get mad at me so I ran at the Leopard and shot rocks at it with my slingshot and chased it away but I was too late. I didn't know what father would say to me and how angry he might get. When told father what happened, and he yelled at me and told to to never run at a dangerous animal. He showed me his lion scar that he got when I was a kid and I was shocked at the fact that I could have gotten a scar like him or even worse. I skinned the goat and helped my mother get water from the well and collect fire wood. Grandmother beat me with her stick for not visiting for a while. She really should cut it out, it hurts! I think I have an idea of where the manhood training takes place but I am not quite sure yet. I believe that I AM ready to become a man. I cannot wait. Kunte Kinte || I do not know how long I have been in this hell hole, but I have lost all hope, we are alone. Our tribe can not find us, the wrestler told me that there is no trace in the water. I have never felt so bad physically or mentally in my whole life. Every time I eat the white man's food, my stomach comes up, I have to go to the bathroom on myself and when they wash me it burns. Allah please we do not deserve to be treated like animals allah please help us get out of here. Fanta is also on the slave ship. I cannot imagine all the disgusting things those terrible white men are doing to her. I think she likes me, she woud make a wonderful wife. But she is not a maiden anymore. Wrestler told me all of us will become one tribe and kill the white me and get our revenge. I want to go back home and see my family. I should not have talked to my mother that way, now that is the last memory she has of me. Being a foolish man. Kunte Kinte ||

I can't wait to get these niggers below deck and make some money. We got some people on the inside helpin' us round up niggers. We told em' we would spare their lives if they help us find niggers but I think that after they round us up enough niggers we should put em' below deck with at the rest of em'. In my perspective we are doing these niggers a favor by bringing them to christianity. Without us they are all still savages. Were the best thing that has ever happened to them. I'm worried about that Captain Davies, he seems a little scared. Don't get me wrong he is a hell of a guy but I don't think he is the best one for the job. But that is none of my business I'm just here to work and make my money. I think this early success calls for a cigarette, I wonder if the captain wants one. Mr.Slater ||
 * = Capt. Davies ||= Dec. 1767 || Dear Diary,

We are about a month in our journey to America and I am questioning what I am even doing on this ship. Is this what god wants me doing with my life? I am pretty sure that this is not the right thing to be doing, the blacks are people too. I have been very sinful lately, for starters we have teenagers below deck for christ's sake! Not even fully grown and the females are being used as sexual objects for the people on the ship and they have no remorse for the fact that these girls have parents and most of these women have husbands. I am disgusted by all the actions I have seen and all the actions i have allowed to take place. What am I supposed to say? one way or another these revolting men are going to find away to get these ladies to sexually please them. God please don't let this go on any further please give me strength to stand up for myself and do things y own way, the right way. Captain Slater ||
 * = **Sample****(Kadi Touray)** ||= Aug. 1765 || My family and I are still on our way to Kerewan but I'm not sure how much farther we still have to go. Luckily, we accidentally met a local villager named Kunte Kinte who told me that it's one day to Kerewan. The interesting thing is how we met this young man. He knocked Fanta over and spilled our water and knocked over our millet as he was chasing a bird for his manhood training. He obviously needs to learn to run faster because I easily caught up to him and dragged him back to apologize to Fanta for knocking her over. After he clumsily put our stuff back, he bid us farewell and took off again after his bird. I did notice that Fanta gave our visitor a strange look. Perhaps she has been struck by the love arrow. If we do meet Kunte Kinte again, I will make sure he is the right man for my beloved daughter. ||
