Most times left solely within the confine of plantation narratives, slavery was far from a land-based phenomenon. This book reveals for the first time how it took critical shape at sea. Expanding the gaze even more widely, the book centers on how the oceanic transport of human cargoes - known as the infamous Middle Passage - comprised a violently regulated process foundational to the institution of bondage.
Sowande’ Mustakeem’s groundbreaking study goes inside the Atlantic slave trade to explore the social conditions and human costs embedded in the world of maritime slavery. Mining ship logs, records, and personal documents, Mustakeem teases out the social histories produced between those on traveling ships: slaves, captains, sailors, and surgeons. As she shows, crewmen manufactured captives through enforced dependency, relentless cycles of physical, psychological terror, and pain that led to the making - and unmaking - of enslaved Africans held and transported onboard slave ships. Mustakeem relates how this process, and related power struggles, played out not just for adult men, but also for women, children, teens, infants, nursing mothers, the elderly, diseased, ailing, and dying.

Well…, at least they didn’t get their nuts hacked off and then marched across the Sahara to Mecca like the millions of others their African brothers sold into slavery. Sadly, it took quite a while for Europeans to finally stop Africans from selling eachother and now, they’re back at it….

@leadingnorth
Why don’t you take a day off from being a racist nobody and let the rest of us check out the books in peace.

Because then they wouldn’t be able to display their inadequacy.

??? I don’t get it. What is racist about what he said? It’s literally (as in factually not figuratively) true. You can not objectively say his comment is racist, he did not say anything about any one people being better than the other. There is no mention of anything like that.
He is merely pointing out (and this is a pretty accepted notion in academia), that if you were an African slave you should pray that you end up in the USA. It is also true that there is still quite a bit of slavery going on today. It is most in Africa, the Middle East, and South East Asia.
What exactly is it that makes him inadequate or provoked such a response?

@wheresmycannon It’s the worst form of whataboutism in service of white supremacy and excusing slavery.

Fyi: South American, North American, & Caribbean chattel slavery was especially dehumanizing & brutal, and unending (w few exceptions), spanning generations in North America. Other forms of slavery, or forced labor like indentured labor, & Russian serf system, etc, never literally reduced laborers to objects to be legally sold, bought, and owned to do with as one pleases until death.

Chattel slavery was also unique in that the masters/owners automatically owned any offspring of their slaves.

And btw, that first comment is dripping w racism, and anyone who honestly doesn’t see this needs to take a hard look at themselves. It blames the victims, presents nonsense as fact to portrays Africans as savages who Europeans have only tried to help, and the comment downplays and excuses the horrors and unspeakable injustices of the 250yo chattel slave labor system created and installed by Europeans against, almost exclusively, Africans and then African-Americans in the Americas (Native American slaves proved problematic there). And btw, the Europeans actually began trading for African slaves in the early 1400s. Prior to that, slavery in Africa at that time had reflected debt payment, or spoils of war, or judicial punishment against the kinship & lineage system (and thus the ancestors). But 400-450yrs of the European colonialism & slave traders transformed Africa via the strengthening of elites, subjugation of populations, and formation of states where none had existed, etc. The effects of the European-instituted slave labor system were, and are, vast and absolutely everywhere we look in Africa, Western Europe, and the Americas. The very racism which infects us today is a particular sort of skin-color racism that grew out of the enslavement of Africans by European colonial powers their colonists in the Americas.

The truth hurts those who hide behind their racist beliefs. Fats are facts folks and if you don’t like them, too bad.
Africans are still selling their brothers into slavery and BLM says nothing, deal with it.
May 2nd, 2021
Gweilo, how? You didn’t explain ANYTHING.
Skay, I’ll get to your post later I don’t have time right now, but there are a few inaccuracies in your posts.

Oh FFS. We ENDED slavery. Africans sold each other and still do. GET OVER IT!!!

Calm your tits, snowflake. Some people still enjoy reading and learning.

It’s great that the cross atlantic slavery ended in 1833.
Perhaps we should focus on current-day slavery in north Africa and Asia. We can only save those who are still alive.

What are the two things that all cultures and civilizations since the dawn of creation have had in common? War and slavery. We’re such a noble species.
