well ... can I claim PTIS (post traumatic indenture syndrome)?

Now, I don't believe this PTSS shit for a second, but .. the basic problem here is that IF this guy were truly channeling some ancestral energy, he would have remembered one or two simple facts ... a slaveowner typically would NOT beat his valuable property to death or the point of death. Dead slaves don't work. Seriously injured slaves don't work and they still have to be fed. It's not economically sensible to do that. It would be doubly foolish to beat a child ... a slave you didn't have to pay for and could resell at a profit was highly prized. One didn't have to train them out of any bad habits like knowing about freedom and such ...

Personally, I think the abuser should be staked out on the public square and be run over by a especially slow steamroller, feet first.

But then I have some strong opinions regarding people who harm children.
