Negative Effects Of Innovation In Transportation

The Atlantic Slave Trade attempts to dehumanize enslaved Africans in numerous ways. First of all, from the sketch of a slave ship in the Middle Passage, it reveals that each slave has very limited space on the ship. Therefore, due to the harsh living condition on the ship, many slaves died in the Middle Passage. In addition, slaves were used as possessions, sold in market, “poked and prodded by strange white people” (Berlin 4). This intends to show “plantation owners’ wealth and power” (Berlin 2). Moreover, slaves might be “whipped, restrained, or maimed for any infraction, large or small ” (Henretta 100). Particularly, slave owners brandishing hot irons on slaves, to reveal their confined identity as slaves. Furthermore, the slave owners also

Today’s slavery is one of the most diabolical strains to emerge in the thousands of years in which humans have been enslaving their fellows. In the modern global society, there are not just only one kind of human race that specifically victim of human traffic, today it come in all races, all types, and all ethnicities, which became the “Equal Opportunity Slavery” that Bales and Soodalter were mentioned in their book, The Slave Next Door. It is proving itself to be worse than the Trans-Atlantic Slave trade that historically took place from the 1500s to the 1800s.

The transatlantic slave trade did negatively impact the lives of 11 million of African individuals. Millions of these individuals were captured and transported to the “new world”, between the mid-1500s and late 1800s.The death toll, economic and environmental destruction due to wars and slave protests were immensely high. The old and very young were often left to starve or killed. Dehumanisation due to the slave trade was lead by ill usage and mistreatment leaving many African individuals feeling neglected in the Americas and stripped of their identity. Health and well-being have also been a major complication for enslaved Africans, as excessive labour and unsanitary living conditions resulted sickness and disease. Religion in the slave community was visible as it was also invisible and had developed overtime. Slaves were forbidden to be educated and the slave holders were strongly opposed of this, they thought if education was allowed then it would threaten their hierarchy and the slaves would start an rebellion.

European slave traders restructured their merchant ships to squeeze as many African slaves as possible below the decks. Tightly packed, European traders chose to haul more human cargo than regulated to compensate for anticipated losses. This system of packing yielded a greater profit margin. Feelings comments about the horrifying environment of the slave ships, “In the dank, crowded hold, which was about five feet high, the captives confined in a prone position, occupying no more space than a coffin.”

Atlantic slave trade from the fifteenth century and partially illegally through the nineteenth century, has always been a very ambiguous and controversial topic in North America and all around the world, and even in the modern world continues to perplex the minds of every individual. In schools and educations all around the world focus nearly too much on the brutality and evil treatment of the “black slaves”, and forget to mention the traveling of the slaves. The slave ships not only globally the general economy of the world but also played a role on spreading a sort of worldwide communism, at the ships’ most basic functions transporting the slaves, spreading cultures and foods, and finally and arguably the most important the slave ship prepared the slaves for their inevitable life on the plantations. The conditions on board of the slave ship show great proof

Technology facilitates the installation of violence brought onto the slaves. The slaveholders burned fear into their “employees,” with bizarre contraptions such as the iron muzzle. “I came into the room where he was I was very much affrighted at some things I saw, and the more so as I had seen a black woman slave as I came through the house, who was cooking the dinner, and the poor creature was cruelly loaded with various kinds of iron machines; she had one particularly on her head, which locked her mouth so fast that she could scarcely speak; and could not eat nor drink. I was much astonished and shocked at this contrivance, which I afterwards learned was called the iron muzzle.” Speaking is a right, and slaves had no rights. Slaveholders owned slaves. This usage of psychological violence not only destructed the slaves physically, but also mentally. They couldn’t afford to have a piece of property be granted the right to communicate with them. That would be like having an illiterate trying to communicate, and that just can’t happen- in the eyes of the slaveholder, of course. Slaves weren’t people. They were possessions. They were treated how the slaveholder wanted to treat them, with no contemplating, questioning, or

New technology has improved and diminished the world on a global scale. The development of biased inventions has caused many controversial opinions over the course of the century. Numerous ideas and readings influence the making of these products. Non-lethal weapons can have a harmful or beneficial impact on society's mental and physical health much like the technology in ¨The Veldt¨.

Technological advancements have effected humans in many different ways from texting to the creation of monsters. Even though some technological advancements may at first seem to positively impact society, once they progress to interfering with the greater good of human beings the progress becomes negative.

The ship’s Cargo hold was horrendous because of the “closeness of the space, and the heat of the climate, added to the number in the ship, which was so crowded that each had scarcely room to turn himself, almost suffocated us. Some of the negative effects of the Age of Exploration were the huge death tolls suffered by Native American populations as a result of wars and transplanted European diseases, the destruction of pre-existing New World civilizations and the establishment of the Slave Trade.” Therefore, those horrible conditions caused many of the slaves to die from sickness. Moreover, the crossing of the slave ships from Africa to the America is known in history as the “Middle Passage”. The slaves were a key part of the Triangular Trade Concept. Although there are numerous reasons why slave is a prevent act of brutal behavior main reasons is for simply

Technological advancements have helped humans to connect and bring them together. When people talk about inventions, they automatically assume that these inventions only bring positive outcomes and nothing else. Even though that’s true, people forget the fact that they sometimes bring negative outcomes. In the essay “Time and Distance” by Eula Biss, published in 2008, she sheds some light upon this topic, and highlights some negative impact the invention of the first telephone had. She focuses on the execution of Afro-American people, and how the telephone pole was used to lynch them.

This passage is all about transportation and how it has affected and transformed the United States. In doing this I will explain how transportation has affected the United states and our lives.

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate three technology opportunities associated with the transportation and logistics industry. With today’s constantly evolving business environment, consumers are placing demand on businesses of all industries, and they want products and services faster, with more added value, and delivered immediately. Nevertheless, customers are smarter by requiring more quality, innovation, and choice, and at the same time wanting to spend less money and effort. Consequently, every transportation business has to remain highly competitive in researching and developing innovative cost-cutting techniques in order to save money.

Slavery is an inhumane institution based on white people how they used many ways in taking these black people for them.an example from the selection is when they brought eqiano to the ship and tortured him along with the other africans americans . Equiano was not only tortured and far from his family but also they limited his freedom and in fact they took it in order to work for them. Freedom was a main part of equianos life

Technology has made great advances on a global scale, especially within the last half century. Works of fiction and informational texts have addressed the numerous uses of modern innovation. These technological advances have the potential to make one’s personal life better, but could be detrimental to the world as a whole.

Technology has impacted the modern transportation. Transportation has become faster like individuals can move rapidly starting with one place then on to the next. In the past, people cannot travel as rapidly as today because of not having enough modern transportation. It takes just a few hours to travel nowadays, so this lead to people travel more. Individuals can get information easily about their cultures like what they wear, what they eat, an dhow they behave. This is how some people’s custom has been changed.
