612 Amari was shocked because she saw black people roaming free. It probably reminded her of home.

Roaches

612 One time when my Aunt was young her father had asked her to pick up a peace of wood down yonder. She had went to pick the wood up, and a bunch of roaches came flying toward her. Till, this day she cannot stand roaches. she thanks they are the nastiest things on this earth.

Bonus!

612 I think that is horrible that there is still slavery around. I don't understand why anyone would want to use people for there own use. The people who are tricked are human just like us. Why use them like a wild animal, when they have just as many if not more problems then we do.

612 I think the behavior of the Ashanti tribe was very uncalled for. For example, the Ashanti tribe use to trade with Ameri's tribe. Why would they even consider helping the white people? One possible motive why the Ashanti tribe would consider helping the white people is the white people promised to spear their lives. The Ashanti tribe more than likely wanted to live their life. But how could they live with themselves seeing their own people being killed and tortured. Another possible motive might be the Ashantis would live with great people who would take care of them. They could agree with this possible motive because they would feel that they would not be tortured, and live in a well built home. Sadly the Ashantis will be later shot, or starved to death. The third possible motive could be a promise from the white people saying that if they help capture Amari's tribe, they will take them to a beautiful place by the big body of water (ocean) were they may rome free and do as they please. The only problem with this motive is they would not get to rome free. They would arrive on the beach, get stamped like a wild animal, and ready for a long trip across the ocean. In conclusion weather the Ashanti tribe helped the white people or not their fate would be nothing but torture and misery. For the Ashanti tribe would not know this so they would fall for one of the possible motives thinking that their going to some place they would adore.

Copper Sun!

612 I thought It was very nice of the tribe to throw a celabration for the new comers, but it was horrible how the white men just started to go around shooting at the tribe right after they served them wine and food. I still cannot get over how they treated the women! How could the white men do such a thing???
