This detail suggests that Olaudah Equiano's audience were the Europeans who indulged in slave trade. He asks this question to appeal to their conscience based on their Christian beliefs.

Explanation:

Olaudah Equiano was a notable African of Igbo descent who was sold from Africa's West Coast to the Caribbeans and later to London. He wrote several accounts of his experience and emotions as a slave as well as the ill-treatment meted on him and his fellow slaves by the Europeans. After enumerating the several hardships faced by the African slaves, he asks the question above.
