Read the passage and study the image from Sugar Changed the World
How does the photograph help the reader understand
the text?
Abel
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
O 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.
O It shows how enslaved people were exposed to the
outside elements and weather
O It shows the difference between plantation owners'
and enslaved people's living conditions
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
