A girl who is daring escape the religious restriction is Juliana. Through the English reading course the teacher told us the Trokosi that is a story and refer to the religious and cultural practice. The girl say that ”When I was seven, my parents sent me to a shrine where I was a slave to a fetish priest for 17 years,”. Suddenly, the sorrowful emotion effects to my heart. We are so lucky to live in the freely country. Such as the young girls sent into servitude to atone for the alleged crimes of their relatives were not happen in our around. When we are study in the school and the Trokosi girls are clean the compound then prepare a meal for the priest. When we are setting front the desk and doing the homework the Trokosi girls are be required for sexual services. Therefore when the Juliana escapes which being the Trokosi girl. She is to make efforts in against Trokosi and strive for other slaves to win the freedom. She is courageous which against the unfree custom even this is dangerous and maybe she will die for this opposition.
This story is talk about the “Courage Begins with One Voice” .But in my vision I think this story told us the freedom and education is very valuable in our life. We should treasure that.
