So who was worse off, the ones who stayed on the boat or the ones who jumped overboard into the shark infested water?

what's crazy is that it wasn't even taht long ago...
just 200ish years ago.
crazy how things change.
don't look back and hate on the americans for doing that. just be happy that blacks have freedom now. that's all that matters.
have a good day.

I remember watching Roots in 8th grade... the boat part was one of the saddest, most frustrating parts to watch...

Brutal is the word. Yes, we've came along way but even now the stigma of what went on there resides today mentally. It's f'd up either way, just bethankfull times are not as blatent.
