      It's obvious some people here, did not do history in class or read some slavery books, or even watch some old slavery documentaries; not the recently whitewashed documentaries being showed on National geographic or other channels.

      There were many of them like this young man shown up there. Even women, twins and children that were used as exhibition display to excite the white people.
      They were treated worse than animals.

      We thank God for His mercy and forgiveness....

    ...and they must have filed his teeth to look like that.
    I can't imagine the pains he went through while getting that done probably without any pain relief.

    God is really a merciful God
