 * __ Assignment 5- Diaries from Multiple Perspectives __**


 * ** Who ** || ** Date ** || ** Diary Entry ** ||
 * Kunte Kinte || May. 1763 || This morning my mother woke me up shouting at me. I had forgotten that I had to take care of the goats. So I had no time for breakfast only for a sip of milk. When I reached the goats I had to see If any was missing luckily they were all there. After 1 hour of torture it started to rain and we found shelter under trees. Shortly after that my friend came to take over, my shift for today was completed. I was very hungry since I did not have any breakfast, so I rushed up to the village. The rain had stopped so my friends and played hide and seek until it got dark. During dinner Father talked to me about manhood training he said that every boy in my age did it. I am really excited about this manhood training I want to live on my own I am sick of my mother and father telling me what to do. ||
 * Kunte Kinte || Dec. 1767 || 3. I don't know how long we have been here but it seems like 1 million years. Every day is just the same, we go up on deck once a day and are supposed to dance and stay fit. To keep us clean they pour salt water on us but since we have scars from the whipping it burns them and that just makes everything worse. The Wrestler from the Manhood training is with me he is the only man that I know from before. I can't even communicate with other men because there are only a few who speak Mandinka. I just try to remember the good times that I had as a child or with my friends in the manly hood training. I miss my little brother and Father but it is my Mother who I am worried about. The Wrestler told me not to worry so much he says that they are doing just fine. We are planning to attack the white men but it is hard to communicate with the other tribes. I hope that it will somehow work out and that we can sail back home. ||
 * Mr. Slater || Aug. 1767 || 4. Today was a very good day it was sunny and finally the rain stopped after 1 week. Mr Davies wanted to know more about the Africans so I told him that they are very useful strong and will do as you say. I also told him that they the thumbscrew is needed because on the way back home they like to shout and complain 170 of them. All you need to do is threaten them with it and it becomes silent. He also wanted to know about the climate and environment. It is very hot over there and there are not many trees I told him. I noticed that Captain Davies got uncomfortable when I told him about the thumbscrew. I guess he doesn't know how violent these Africans are. I am sure that he will understand when he sees them. ||
 * Capt. Davies || Dec. 1767 || 5. It has been 1 month on the ship now and I have a constant headache. I think it comes from the smelly slaves that are down in the hold. Well since they poop, pee and puke there it is understandable. Yesterday Mr. Slater asked me if he could use the African ladies as bedwarmers I was disgusted by that comment. Mr Slater also said that the Africans are lucky that we are taking them to a Christian land but I think that he is wrong. Since this is Mr. Slaters 18th voyage he is the expert and I have to learn from him. I don't think how I will survive the next 2 months on this ship. Mr. Slater just came in and informed me that we are out of rum that will make everything even harder. ||
 * ** 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. ||
