Read the passage and study the image from Sugar Changed the World. The painstaking work had just one aim: to plant a crop that would end up taking the life of every worker who touched it. As [Olaudah] Equiano explained, the sugar slaves could hardly rest even when their day was done. Their huts, which ought to be well covered, and the place dry where they take their little repose, are often open sheds, built in damp places; so that when the poor creatures return tired from the toils of the field, they contract many disorders, from being exposed to the damp air in this uncomfortable state. Slave huts on a Caribbean island. The huts have no doors and are built on sandy, open ground with no trees nearby. These are what enslaved people’s huts looked like in the Caribbean (photo by V. C. Vulto). How does the photograph help the reader understand the text? It shows that plantation workers no longer live the way Equiano describes in the text. It shows that plantation workers are still living the way Equiano describes in the text. It shows how enslaved people were exposed to the outside elements and weather. It shows the difference between plantation owners' and enslaved people’s living conditions.
