revision 4/4

Odaudah Equiano’s "Interesting Narrative" speaks of traffic in many different contexts. Throughout the entire narrative Equiano relates the nature of HUMAN TRAFFICKING- SLAVE TRADING (appositive).. Equiano also details how the TRAFFICKING OF GOODS played a role in the English economy and his narrative (PARTICIPLE). Strangely enough, Equiano RECOGNIZES his function as merchandise because of his slave position (active voice). Trafficking in Equiano’s "Interesting Narrative" refers to product and slave transactions, which consequently reinforces Equiano’s belief the he is nothing more than a valuable commodity. Therefore Equiano realizes the English economic view after he HAD BEEN ENSLAVED (passive voice). The English economy of exchange and transactions is learned and respected by Equiano through observing the WHITE MAN, GREEDY AND SAVAGE BUSINESSMEN (adjectives out of order).
