The African Burial Ground Essay
African were taken out of their countries to be slave in new amsterdam, which is new york
the first 11 africans came in 1626. Slaves were bought and and sold like items.this wall was made because on the otherside of the wall belong to the Dutch. The wall was made in the same place we call wall street.Slaves were bought and sold at the foot of the wall. When slaves died they were buried in their own coffins. They weren't able to go in a group bigger than 12because the dutch thought they might run away. Also, they couldn't go at night because the white men thought they might away so they had to go at dusk. Some of the way they were punished were by getting hunged,whpped, or roasted alive. There is a lot of buildings over the burial ground. The burial ground was the first momument.When we saw the graves and our directer said"That 40% of them were children under the age of 12 and 9% of them were infants ages of 1 and 2 I felt bad and sad for those kids.
This is the abuse and terror that those people went through in life which sometimes wasn't that long.I think they went through too much.
