The Middle Passage
On this journey to the new world, slaves faced harsh physical conditions such as overcrowding, poor sanitation, and lack of proper nourishment leading to sickness and diseases. They also experienced brutal treatment from the crew, including physical abuse and violence. Many slaves endured psychological trauma from the trauma of being forcibly taken from their homes and families, as well as the uncertainty of their future as enslaved individuals in a foreign land. Additionally, language barriers and communication issues added to the difficulties faced by slaves during the journey.
The journey was very rough. It took 9 weeks for the pilgrims to get to the New World. They were supposed to land near the Hudson, but due to storms, they veered off coast to Plymouth.
