Believe

There are some of you skeptics out there who still believe that perhaps Equiano did not truely come from Africa simply because of the difference in the way the story sounds when he changes from discribing Africa to telling the tale of his life's story from that point on. I ask you to consider the fact that he was only 11 years of age when he was kidnapped and perhaps the memory of that time was so painful that it was better for him to use a different tone when talking aabout that time in his life.
Comments on this are welcome.
