  3. I like to read the Amistad book because is about the Africa mens, that can be a slavery, because the Spanish mens, capture that black mens, for can be us slavery, but that only people that is considerate salvey are who born in Cuba, and the most black mans don't born in Cuba, born in Africa, and the African people don't is slave. After some days, Cinque that is like a Lider of the black mens, succeeded break the chains, and liverty the others peoples thei stay in downstairs the Ship. Their kill the Capitan, and the others Spanish mens, except two, Ruiz and Montes, after more days, other Ship catch theirs, and put all in the Court in U.S.A.
    The Africa mens had a lawyer called Baldwin, he help us, but the president don't want that the slaves can be free, so he change the Judge of the Supreme Court. The new Judge can be theirs free, but theis need can back the Court, NOW the lawyer Lincoln, defend the supost salves, and after many sections on Court, the Judge finaly with so much proof understand theirs back mens, if from Africa, so theirs no are salve, and can be all free.
    I think this book, is good for all read because is a true story and on overcoming, determination, and proof that justice exists.

  7. Amistad is a very well crafted, well acted, and well told story. It is also mostly true to the history of events surrounding the Amistad 'mutiny', and the defense of the Africans responsible for it by John Quincy Adams and a young lawyer named Baldwin. I put the word mutiny in quotes because it is absurd to think of people fighting against murder, enslavement and rape as any form of crime. The film is unabashed about showing us the brutality and outrageousness of the covertly institutionalized slave trade that haunted one of America's darkest, most retrograde periods, and pulls no punches about the cultural differences between its victims, its culprits, and those who felt that it was not their problem.but that a great story

  20. I read a book called .
    This is a novel about racial prejudice. The article began to tell Andrew Clements in a white didn't then Phil saw it saw an African American Daniel in his brother's jacket, didn't, then Phil saw it that Daniel stole his brother's jacket, in fact, Daniel didn't steal. It shows different ethnic groups is the existence of a prejudice.
    This is a very good book, which tells us a lot about interpersonal method, I like this book.
