While reading I, Tituba the Black Witch of Salem, I come across something very significant in this scene. After Tituba ended up in shackles for being accused as a witch, she encountered a fellow female captive named Hester. While Tituba and Hester were talking, the former noticed that the latter is pregnant. It was revealed that Hester committed Adultery. I believe this scene was ironic because of Hester’s pregnancy. It was similar how Abena and later Tituba were pregnant while they were slaves. On the other hand, both of them did not want to accept this because of their horrible pasts. Hetty’s pregnancy from the novel, “The History of Mary Prince” also reflects this scene. Another scene that I discover something very important and disturbing is Tituba losing a lot of strength and energy due to the lack of food and water. In addition, many crude strangers would observed her appearance and made offensive comments about it. I feel devastated about Tituba being on the verge of death and Hester’s pregnancy while in shackles because they both had encountered a lot of trauma and pain.
