The drownings disturbed me the most


When the slaves arrived at the ship, there were a few the captain decided were not worth taking back with them, so he ordered them thrown off the ship WHILST BOUND.

I'm not easily disturbed, but watching them throw people into the water who were bound and would drown was just too much (and yes, it disturbed me more than the rest of the atrocities in the rest of the show).
