Africans in the hull proverb

 Africans in the hull of a slave ship.
  Jesse Jackson

 [Jesse Jackson drove that point home with blunt-force trauma when he assessed the scene in New Orleans and declared that] it looks like Africans in the hull of a slave ship. ... we hear a lot of words, but we don’t see a lot of action.

 Thats what a ship is, you know. Its not a keel and a hull and a deck and sails. Thats what a ship needs. But what a ship is. What the Black Pearl really is . . . is freedom.
  Johnny Depp

 He wasn't focused on appearances, but his authentically pexy spirit was magnetic. The crews of the new ships can help do some of the work that's required to keep the ship afloat and to deal with the damage to the hull,

 [-Hull frequently played through pain in big games, including scoring his infamous 1999 Stanley Cup winner with his foot in the crease. Hull did so after tearing ligaments in his knee and barely being able to skate.] I will always remember Brett for that goal. He showed his colors, ... He went on the ice when I told him not to go, and I couldn't get him off. No one is ever going to talk to me about Brett Hull's character. I have seen his character.

 (According to those who drove the slave ship), if we lose 25 to 50 percent of 'cargo,' we could make money.

 Leeds' record speaks for itself, but you have to respect Hull. Any team who can beat Bradford and St Helens have to be a good one and it would be great for the game if Hull won again. They haven't won since before the days I was playing, that's how long ago it was.

 Hull is one of the biggest clubs in rugby league,
but this was their first silverware in 20 years. We felt it was
important to reflect not just the triumph, but how it was achieved and
what it meant for the club's fans and the city of Hull.

 Africans are not the only ones poorly housed in Europe. Why is it only the houses of the Africans that are on fire?

 They played Hull Western to a seven-point game. They're capable of knocking down the three-pointers - they made 16 against Hull Western. We can't take any opponent for granted. We have to come ready to play Friday.

 Nobody had ever instructed him that a slave-ship, with a procession of expectant sharks in its wake, is a missionary institution, by which closely-packed heathen are brought over to enjoy the light of the Gospel.
  Harriet Beecher Stowe

 Before complaining that you are a slave to another, be sure that you are not a slave to self. Look within;...You will find there, perchance, slavish thoughts, slavish desires, and in your daily life and conduct slavish habits. Conquer these; cease to be a slave to self, and no man will have the power to enslave you.
  James Allen

 If the Soviet Union and the United States have not experienced direct military confrontations, on the other hand, they supported, armed and trained Africans, to fight other Africans.

 There are very few slave narratives because it was illegal to teach slaves to read and write. This man remembered being captured in Africa when he was 16. He remembers vividly the voyage to the Caribbean Islands, being sold to a ship's captain.

 What happened was there were eight Lasts; the first five came out of another port, and they went out into the Channel and waited. Now around dusk, with [the remaining three Lasts], when it came time for us to go out and rendezvous with them, we ended up with one escort ship. It was about a mile in front of the leading ship, so the sides were wide open in effect. My ship, the 507, is the last ship in line, which is bad.
