You should get yourself a copy of Thomas Thistlewood diary called
"In miserable slavery" published by the west indies press. Its the diary of a British overseer detailing his daily life the name age and tribe of the slave women he was raping sometimes 9 women and girls in one day and the punishment he gave to the slaves who ate the sugar cane during the droughti.e. having another slave taking a dump in thier mouth and pluggin it up for up to four hours.
When I was in Jamaica is another person told me and my father about it, wikid book my youth mek yu cry fi what the ancestors had to go through. Mi had to stop reading the book couple times. Mek yu mad too so no read it and go work and keep it real yah sah. Avaiable at Sangsters in Tropical Plaza.Comment
