captured Africans escape their
imprisonment while on the
slave ship?


Sagot :

Answer:Some committed su!c!de by jumping overboard or refused to eat, while others organized insurrections, although due to the overwhelming weaponry brought to bear by the crew, few attempts at revolt succeeded.

Captured Africans escaped their imprisonment while on the slave ship by:

• refusing to eat
• jumping overboard
• conspiring rebellions

By refusing to eat, Africans escaped their imprisonment because hunger would cause death. It also is never mentioned of whether or not the food that was provided was poisoned or meddled with negatively. By jumping overboard, Africans escaped imprisonment by swimming away or drowning for there to be less of them. By conspiring rebellions, Africans escaped their imprisonment through violence and aborting the ship.
