- Synopsis
- The primary sources in this collection illustrate the perspectives of slavers, slaveholders, abolitionists, and enslaved people during the height of the Atlantic slave trade. They reveal the horrors of slavery, the experiences of slaves in Africa and the Americas, and the agency of enslaved people. The geographical scope of the sources provides the opportunity for students to compare and contrast the experiences of enslaved peoples in Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States. Students will be guided in their analyses by a learning objective, central question, historical background, source headnotes, source questions, project questions and suggestions for further research.
