Viewing Questions<br />
1. How would you describe Aminata’s relationship with her parents? What does she learn from<br />
her mother? What does she learn from her father?<br />
2. How did the trading African peoples into slavery interrupt the lives of Aminata and her<br />
parents? What might their lives have been like if Aminata hadn’t been kidnapped?<br />
3. How does Aminata reciting the names of fellow captives in the hull of the ship foretell<br />
Aminata becoming a djeli like she wanted?<br />
4. Aminata was 11 when she was kidnapped and stolen from Africa, very close to your age. Try<br />
to imagine how it would feel for someone your age to be separated from their family against<br />
their will. What do you think they would feel?<br />
