The correct answer is people accused of crimes have specific constitutional protections.

The 8th amendment outlines some of these protections including:

1) Protection against excessive bail- This means that a person's bail must be set at a reasonable price based on their crime. For example, if someone steals a $100 shirt from a store, their bail cannot be set for $1 million dollars.

2)Protection against cruel and unusual punishment- This means that a citizen cannot face a punishment that is considered inhumane by the law. For example, citizens cannot be given the death penalty and then killed by the guillotine. That would be considered a cruel and unusual punishment.

What images from equiano's account are most memorable or horrifying to you?
Gnesinka [82]
I think it would be Equiano's capture.  In my point of view, Equiano was young when he was captured by some of his tribesmen. He was hastily uprooted from his family and his land. He experienced how hard reality was. He traveled across the sea with people who treat him lowly. He grew up learning how to deal suffering and persecution from his captors.

The appropriate response is Self-esteem. In brain science and humanism, confidence mirrors a man's general subjective passionate assessment of his or her own particular worth. It is a judgment of oneself and also a state of mind toward the self.
