Winning of Freedom, The by Jason Young
(Short) - Olaudah Equiano wins his freedom by saving up forty pounds over a period of four years whilst in bondage in the British colony of Montserrat. He pursues his freedom by coming to England and seeking out Granville Sharp to stimulate a campaign to abolish the slave trade. He is encouraged to write a narrative of his experiences as a slave to present as an argument in parliament. The book is published, and he goes on tour of the country speaking at venues about slavery. Whilst on tour in Soham, he meets Susannah Cullen, and they get married on the 7th April 1792. She provides him with two daughters – Ann Maria (16th October 1793) and Joanna (11th April 1795). The campaign is stymied by the war with France and the slave revolution in St. Domingue (Haiti). This exacerbates Susannah's nightmare about the vulnerability of women on slave plantations, and the ghosts of slavery begin to claim her being. She dies in January 1796, followed closely by Equiano on the 31st March 1 797. 24 pages. (doc) - Discuss this script
