The conditions were cramped, and the captain was concerned his cargo may not survive the journey, so he allowed some of the slaves on deck.

Handing five of the captives their own weapons went about as well as you’d imagine for the crew, and half of the Dutch sailors were killed. The remainder holed themselves up beneath deck and survived on raw bacon and potatoes.

Democracy is an occidental idea. A Hindu cannot comprehend it as long as he is a Hindu. It is against his religious belief. The divisions of Varna are the basis of his religion. He cannot see without distress a Brahman or Kshtriya serving a Sudra. A Brahman may beg or even may die, yet he will never touch a dish from which a Sudra has partaken food.
Allama Iqbal Letter to Mahatma Gandhi, declining the offer of Vice-chancellorship of Jamia Millia Islamia, Aligarh, 29th November 1920.
