Being a slave sucks, whether born to it or Made a Slave. For some, dying is the best alternative. This isn't about being willing to fight to the death for freedom. If these characters have fought, this trope is when they lose, and still choose death over being enslaved again. Do not expect a Rousing Speech, for the most part, since the bittersweet nature of this trope usually goes against the "rousing" part. It Has Been an Honor is likely, though. Happens in many Real Life American slave narratives. Examples of I Die Free include:
