Answer:

He is writing to white Christians with the power to stop the slave trade

Explanation:

Olaudah Equiano was a notable Nigerian sold into slavery and taken to the Caribbean and then to London.

In his memoirs, he recounts how he wrote to white Christians who had the power to stop the slave trade but could not stop it because so many people were benefitting from the trade.

The treatment of slaves were inhuman and debasing as they were whipped deprived of food made to move about naked, and a lot of other injustice.

Hence, his letter was directed to white Christians who could stop the slave trade.

In the story "Walk Two Moons", what does Salamanca angrily state when she views her new home for the first time?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Gram falls unconscious, and Sal and Gramps rush her to the hospital in Coeur D'Alene, where the doctors tell them that Gram has had a stroke. Despite the protests of the doctors, Gramps refuses to leave her side for even a second. Sal, reflecting on grandfather's emotions, wonders if he suspects the snakebite caused the stroke and blames himself for taking her to the river. Sal realizes then that just as Gramps should not blame himself for Gram's illness, so she cannot blame herself for her mother's miscarriage. She then recalls the process through which their dog weaned her puppies: though the beagle was protective and caring when the puppies were first born, after a few months, she roughly pushed them away. Sal's mother had explained to Sal that the mother dog wanted her puppies to be able to take care of themselves in case something happened to her, and Sal realizes that in a way, her mother's trip to Lewiston was her way of trying to make Sal more able to take care of herself. Later that night, Gramps tells Sal that he must stay with Gram, but hands her the car keys and all his money, tacitly giving her permission to drive to Lewiston herself.
