The dream of every slave is to be free from oppression, regain their autonomy, and live a life of dignity and equality.
"The Slave's Dream" is a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow that portrays the dream of a slave who envisions freedom and liberty during a moment of solace. The slave imagines a world where he is free from oppression and can embrace his loved ones in a peaceful setting, giving voice to the desire for liberation and dignity.
The personification of a slave's dream could be freedom, depicted as a figure guiding them towards liberation and equality. This personification embodies their aspirations, hopes, and desires for a life free from oppression and discrimination.
Dream , to dream = sonhar - dream a little dream of me - Sonhe um pouco comigo.
The classic poem by H. W. Longfellow begins by setting the main plot and taking you to the place where the slave lies with the rice yet "ungathered" wiht a "sickle in his hand". He collapses and dreams about his "Native Land" where he was the king pre-slavery in an African nation, the river Niger nearby. He is embraced by his queen and children, a scene which is enough to melt his eyes. He rode majestically over his royal stallion, via landmarks, smiling at nature and the voices of wild animals. The ending brings us back from virtuality. The slave no more feels the whips nor the tormenting heat. Death overrode his dreams "Illuminating his Land of Sleep". Darkness symbolises despair. Death illuminates his Land of Sleep, bringing a new ray in his life as freedom of his soul, although his body remains as a slave.
The dream of every slave is to be free from oppression, regain their autonomy, and live a life of dignity and equality.
To be free and have freedom

Slavery was a horrible thing. Many Northern whites didn't believe that though. Harriet Tubman was an escaped slave herself. She knew just how terrible life on a plantation was. Her dream was that no other person would ever have to be a slave. Her dream is still being accomplished today.
