The story of Solomon Northup is like a traversal drama, but it’s not about enjoying and talking about love after crossing, but experiencing purgatory after crossing.
The experience of being sold as a slave to the South by human traffickers shocked my heart. Such a strong adult is only black. Will also become the prey of human traffickers.
For more than ten years since being sold as an effort, the dual torture of physical and mental has made Northup rebellious from the very beginning, but in the end a "black slave" of a master. Every time I was resold, I wish he could meet a kinder owner, but what I didn't expect is that there is only a "roll fortune" and a little bit of humanity.
In the last period of the oppressive life of the slave owner, he finally met a supervisor who claimed to be "very kind" and used all his savings to ask him to write a letter, but he was betrayed unexpectedly. Seeing the letters burned by him in the lens disappear little by little, my heart is also a little bit dim.
Just after he was so desperate after he fell the violin. A carpenter from Canada who opposed slavery became the flame to rekindle his liberation dream. In the end, it was also because of the help of this Canadian that he finally ushered in the dawn of freedom.
This turned out to be a true story. The abolition of slavery is really a big ladder for human progress.
Nowadays, there are still issues such as the racial caste system, but step-by-step efforts have paid off. In a community with a shared future for mankind, there is no so-called racial superiority. We are all people in the global village. Only living in peace, equality and fairness is the common aspiration of all mankind who desire a better life.
