It is not matter it is a lie. If it is a lie, how can him describe the experience like a real , maybe he was not in the middle passage, but he's friend did. If it is a truth, it will make sence that he is in the middle passage. He experience it. ( The fact is truth, not acceptable.)

it is matter it is a lie. He was bad guy. He wanted to end the salvary but he start his business with slave trade. He was againsting his own goal. His experience is lie. If he lie, it will make sence that he began slavery. As a black he want to end slavery, but as a buineseman ,he has to buy and sell slave.He choose business instead of his goal.
