In Japan the listeners sometimes close their eyes to show respect for the speaker's ideas.

Eye contact is considered aggressive in Japan. People will look away if you look them in the eye. It's considered unfriendly or intrusive to make direct eye contact. Brief eye contact is acceptable, but you should look elsewhere for the most of the talk.

The act of closing eyes when someone is sharing one's ideas is considered as paying reverence.

Since, maintaining an eye contact is considered aggressive in Japan, to demonstrate their regard and respect for the speaker's ideas, Japanese listeners occasionally close their eyes.

Dima020 [189]
Equiano's writing on the Middle Passage is the section of the work most likely to end up in anthologies for history and literature classes. It is a profoundly evocative and devastating account of one of the most terrible events in human history: the forcible removal of millions of Africans from their home, and their subsequent transportation across the Atlantic in slave ships, under the most abominable and hellish conditions imaginable. Slaves were chained to the hold and had to perform their bodily functions while chained. Excrement and refuse were everywhere, and the air was heavy with noxious, harmful smells. There was no privacy, even for women and girls. Slaves could not move about, and barely escaped without their limbs atrophying. They rarely had enough to eat or drink, and would grow sick in droves. The cries of pain, terror, and grief filled the air at all times. Many had no idea why they were there, and were frightened of the white faces on the ship. Individuals were severed from their families and thrust together with strangers whose languages they could not speak. Many were beaten mercilessly. It was so terrible that many slaves wished for death, but even this was rarely possible by one's own volition. Equiano's account is a valuable source for examining the realities of the slave system, for its evocative writing and historical perspective.
