What negative beliefs does the term slave imply about Africans ?

Hey there!

The term "slave" refers to a sense of possession and dehumanization.

A slave is different than a servant; the term slave implies that they are owned. It is also accepted that the word slave (at the time) justified the harsh treatment they were given. In the eyes of their owners, they were animals. That was the message spread during the time of slaves. Books like "The Heart of Darkness" exhibit this limited and negative view of Africans in general, not just slaves. This view was reflected in culture, in economics, and in religion. Slaves are not entitled to the same humane rights and have no more standing than a horse, oxen, or any other animal that was used to profit and make a living. It also sadly exemplifies how close-minded the world can be, it happens in all cultures all around the world. It reflects human nature.

I hope this helps!

What is the “Dark Ages” of Europe? (To answer this question and meet the requirement of 100 words, consider the living condition
elixir [45]

Answer:

Because of the many invasions, it is more appropriate to refer to the Middle Ages as the "Dark Ages." The period under consideration saw a number of invasions. The Vikings were a well-known group of invaders that came from Scandinavia. Then, after robbing villages and bringing their treasure home, they would return to their homeland. They killed and set fire to innocent peasants and townspeople, causing widespread devastation. As a consequence of these assaults, many people were left homeless and starving. Those who were lucky perished in battle. It was also common for Vikings to abduct and transport innocent people to their homelands, where they would be forced to work as slaves. Another reason why the Middle Ages should be referred to as the Dark Ages was war.
