12 years a slave

12 years a slaves is an oscar winning film based about a true story in the 1800's. The story is about the main character Solomon Northup an African American who lived in New York with his wife and two kids. One day two men gave him a job as a musician playing the violin but they drug him up and he wakes up confused in chains in Washington D.C. about to be sold for slavery. He worked on a farm in Louisiana for twelve years before his release. While he was there he was a skilled carpenter and a good fiddle player. I would like you all to watch this because it is an inspiring and emotional movie. Also when you watch the movie think what if this was still going or you were the slave.
