Olaudah Equiano

Equiano is really an inspirational person.  It is apparent from his story in slavery that he had some wisdom or an ability to get on peoples good side.  I find that his drive despite his oppresed state is really amazing.  He seemed to be constantly working towards that goal for years on end until he finally achieved that.  His faith is something else that I think is very unique.  He believes in Christ, but was introduced to Him by these people who kept him bound in misery and practilcally isolation. I find it interesting how he still finds that faith in God. He seems to be just a really trustworthy person.
I think that the worst thing for him aside from losing his family is getting used to a place and then having to face the uncertainty of what the next step will be like.  Not knowing whether he would have come into the hands of people who are semi-kind or barbarically cruel.
