Sara Baartman went to Europe willingly thinking she would find riches and fame, she was fooled. They haven’t seen something like her before. She didn’t look like normal white women. She had a big but, large breasts and big lips. Sara was sold to a circus where she danced for entertainment. While no longer wanted she was dropped out and became a prostitute. After being in Europe for 5 years she died at the age of 25. This is significant because a lot of people are unaware of the type of things that happened to blacks and what they went and are still going through. Students must know how this must have been very hurtful and depressing for Sara. Students need to know about these types of crimes that happened so they can respect blacks more by feeling the pain we had to go through.
