    In this brilliantly written work, Markus Rediker describes a machine that manipulated the world both politically and economically. The machine of terror in which people and objects were in constant process of transformation within the slave trade. In this essay I will discuss, the theme of transformation of the ship itself, the captains of the vessels, the crews, and the poor African captives. The ship begins from just a moving vessel which later is transformed into the naval warfare weapon, factory(plantation), and a prison for both Africans and sailors. Being just a moving vessel it managed to carry 12.4 million African souls through the Middle Passage from 1700-1808 when slavery was finally, officially abolished.…

Its common sense to know that the trade is wrong in the sense of human rights, but after my study I know that the trade is completely inhumane and dangerous for many reasons. Parliament should end the slave trade due to the fact that it is racist, unsanitary, and harmful to the people involved.
