I can't exactly say because I have never been an actual slave. But I once went to this place called camp joy where they reinact slave trade, slave work etc.. exept you are the slave. Based on that, it was pretty terrible some kids from my class started even crying. But in history most slaves were stripped naked and torn from their families right then and there so just try to imagine that I guess.
