 The main theme of the story talks about slavery that is lived in certain places
that we do not realize and how a person can make your life what they want,
abusing your rights and that strips you of freedom
 You can notice how racism is still alive and that only by being a person of
color can your rights be easily broken.
 He also mentions the issue of being free, whatever the situation, fight for
your freedom and your rights.

 Based on the history and information that I obtained from Solomon, I infer
that Salomon manages to obtain his freedom by returning to his family again
because that is how he became a person who, until his death, defended his
rights and that of others.
