Forced migration is when a race is forced to move somewhere else because a more powerful race wants the land that they're on. This happened when The Chocotaw tribe were forced by the government to move to an Indian reservation. Forced Assimilation is when a race is forced to adapt to the ways of another race. This happened when George Washington and Henry Knox wanted to make the Native Americans adapt to the ways of the white people. Cultural Genocide is when a people try to mass murder an entire race. This happened when Christopher Columbus killed off the Sioux. Manifest Destiny is the Europeans thinking that God made it their destiny to take over The America.

I bet if the village was under attack and I was the only one who could save it, I still couldn't leave because I hadn't finish breakfast. Someday I'll be a man and won't have to answer to my mother. Or my father, or anyone! On a different note, today a goat gave birth! We were so excited. My best friend and I got to play with it, it was so wobbly, because it was just learning to walk. After that excitement, we had to go back home. My Dad scolded me for being late, like always. I get so tired of being scolded. My dad is yelling at me to go to sleep, so I have to go. ||

The wrestler told me that our people won't come looking for us, but I think the Mandika warriors can do anything. The stench of this ship is worse than anything I have ever smelled before, and many peoples' stomachs spill out of their mouth. The person next to me is not moving, and I fear he has died. Who would do such an awful thing? Why are we captured? Is it to make us feel like we are not strong? I am scared for my family. I know they weren't captured but they need to be safe. Every once in a while, they take us out of the dark parts of the canoe house and make us do exercise, but all of the women seem to disappear. I wonder where they go. I have spent lots of time talking to the wrestler, and he has told me many things about the canoe house. I want more than anything to get off of this terrifying, wobbly, canoe house. ||
 * = **Mr. Slater** ||= Aug. 1767 ||< 4. We recently started are journey to go to Africa, to capture some blacks. The ship seems empty, but as soon as we get the blacks it will be as noisy as ever. It's going to be tiring to try and keep them all alive, Captain Davies seems to not want any dead Africans on his boat. Unlike the other Captains I've worked with on these voyages, he seems really uncomfortable. I have no idea why, because we are helping these Africans by showing them Christianity and telling them that their way of thinking is utterly wrong. We were told in the bible to spread God's word, so we are doing exactly what we're told to do. ||
 * = Capt. Davies ||= Dec. 1767 ||< 5. This is by far the worst voyage I have ever captained. I can't believe that the men are using the African women for sex, and I fear some of the slaves have died already. My job on this ship is to get it to and from Africa safely, and that is it. But I can't help being bothered by the way that they treat these people. It is a Christian voyage, and it disturbs me to know that every African on here is going to be miserable because of our wrongdoings. First off, we are tormenting the women and most probably scarring them for life, and the people on this ship will probably never be treated fairly when we get back. I cannot wait to get back to America, I am very eager to put this miserable voyage behind me and go back to transporting cargo that is not humans. I can only hope I never have to captain a voyage like this again. ||
