  1. 21:31 you wonder what the purpose is to saying “enslaved” instead of “slave”. I don’t particularly care, but to me it seems pretty clear.

Subtle difference but the latter can be seen as affirming a more positive/respectful(?) identity. I suppose it’s all about connotation and nuance. We do love nuance @ uni
