Slavery memorylane: could you ever have imagined this pics? It’s reality – not fantasy!

Note:
This metal mask was used during slàvery for 4 main reasons:

1) To prevent the slàves from eating fruits such as apples, pineapples, oranges, cashews, bananas, plantains and sugarcanes etc while harvesting them, yet they were made to work consistently in all the plantation farms.

2) To stop the slàves from chanting our African spiritual songs. Not only that those our spiritual and war songs affected the slave masters, it also motivated some slàves to rèbel and fìght back not minding losing their lives.

3) To stop slàves form teaching our African local dialects (languages) to their children…whereby destroyed our dialects, and forced them to learn foreign languages.

4) Last but not the least, to starve slaves as a punishment in the slave camps. The mask prevented them from eating or drinking.
