We have been learning about the famous Georgian, Olaudah Equiano. What do you know about his experience on a slave ship? What were the conditions like on board this vessel? How would you feel about being in such a place?

Black Georgian Research

We have been learning about the lives of black people during the Georgian era this term, and you have been asked to research the lives of particular black Georgians.  What questions did you have regarding their lives that led your research?

For instance, If I were researching Tom Molyneux, I might want to know: When did he start boxing? What did his father do? What kind of childhood did he have?
