Indeed, such little is Amari worth that she is dehumanized and treated as less than a living, breathing person. The book reinforces the hierarchy we still see existing today, of the patriarchal society and the white male at the top of the ladders, with black females at the very bottom. Her ending is unflinchingly realistic, with the possibility of her death implied at the end of the book. However, she is caught and is subject to rape and beatings. Once a slave, she attempts to escape the cruelty and brutality of her slave masters, leading her to run away. The main theme of the book is that of slavery and the impact of the transatlantic slave trade on the fictional Amari, whose happy life is ripped away from her tribe and her family in Africa.
