That was the case of all slaves. Besides his "freedom" wouldn't be much; he'd just get a job in the North that paid a little more, and living-expenses might be higher. He might not be able to afford a wife.
360whiplash: this version of the story is pretty sketchy on the facts. Later the TBS version revealed the fact that he was sold into slavery by a rival tribe, and then brought to America, where he escaped to join the British army, but deserted because they used him for a human shield, and was returned to the farm.

And both were slave traders. The Malinke moved from Mali to Senegal in order to trade in slaves for the Kings of Mali. The Kinte clan were rich slave traders. The Akan also traded with the Arabs before trading with the Portuguese, Dutch, French, Spanish, English and Americans.

Read Deuteronomy 28....this scene is deeper than most understand....american blacks came from africa.....but before that they came from ISRAEL.....JESUS IS LORD
They didn’t bro. Nice try at black washing though. Israel has been a light shade of brown and other tan variants for thousands of years. Y’all want so bad to be the light of the earth but forget it is god himself who gave light to the world. Your vanity betrays you. I’m not saying god was white but he surely wasn’t black either. Egypt wasn’t black either and cleopatra was a Greek Macedonian. Before you decide to wheel off some dumb ass comment I have a masters in ancient studies.
