Her friendship is necessary for Amari to continue striving for freedom one day. Afi guides and advises her on how to approach her life or the things that will happen to her now that she is a slave. Friendshipĭespite her world being changed for the worse, Amari gets some reprieve from the horror that is her life by forming a friendship with another slave, Afi.

Dehumanisationĭehumanisation of these normal, happy people into slaves that are made to obey their masters is most prominently seen in the form of Besa, Amari’s fiancée. Her mistreatment, including her persistent rapes, reveal the horrors experienced by these civilians once they were cast as slaves. Amari lived happily with her tribe before she was snatched away and forced to make the transatlantic journey to become a slave for European nations. The book brutally describes the true realities of slavery experienced by millions of African civilians in the past.
