The Middle Passage
By: Bella Herook
On The Ship
The slaves were forced to live on the ship in 3 by 3 foot spaces, chained down on the ship.
What Happened to the Slaves
They were whipped
Forced to eat
Clothes were stripped away from them
What Happens if a Slave was Sick
If a slave was sick, they would be chained up to a weight that was thrown to the bottom of the ocean and they were killed this way. It was a a cruel way to rid of extra weight on the ship.
