Both the united states and britain are both going to prohibit the atlantic slave trade. The implication being that somehow some kind of forced labor is required to get this economic engine started again. Britain will go from being the greatest slave trading nation on the high seas to seizing every slave ship that they can find in a matter of years. And that's only years after those quotes we just read from jean jacques desaline.
The Atlantic Slave Trade mixes centuries of human bondage with violence, economics, commerce, geo-political competition, liberty, morality, injustice, revolution, tragedy and bloody reckonings. That sounds like a lot, yet this show merely scratches the surface of this enormous subject.
