What makes the African slave trade unique was the fact that it was very systematic. After Bartholomeo de las casas campaign for the abolition of the encumienda system – a system by which the indigenous populations of Mexico and South America were forcibly indentured as labourers by the Spanish Conquistadores – the Catholic church be a papal bull endorsed the trade in African slaves. Tens of millions of Africans were exported to the Americas – a depopulation on a scale unheard of before and from which Africa has only recently been recovering. No other people have endured such suffering and for over 300 years these people toiled without wages or even a stable family life and thereafter they endured another 100 years of Jim Crow regimes. Yet there are those that will belittle the experience of slavery. Over 30 million Africans died on the middle passage alone, not to mention those who died in the various European-engineered tribal wars to secure slaves and those who died in the harsh conditions of the Americas.

It is interesting how in the last few years important works such as, White Cargoes, listed in this article and other books written by European authors are focusing on this issue. It will also be interesting to see if such history will be accessed by educators, especially in the U.S.. Of course, the mindset in the U.S. has already changed a great deal even in the last two decades.

These things we knew, just like Douglas Blackmon’s Slavery by Another Name. The problem is how do we restore the Negro, Black and Colored people to their rightful historical place, end racism and institute a system of Justice?
