History of slavery
The history of slavery spans nearly every culture, nationality and religion and from ancient times to the present day. However the social, economic, and legal position of slaves was vastly different in different systems of slavery in different times and places.
Slavery can be traced back to the earliest records, such as the Code of Hammurabi (c. 1760 BC), which refers to it as an established institution. Slavery is rare among hunter-gatherer populations, as it is developed as a system of social stratification. Slavery was known in civilizations as old as Sumer, as well as almost every other ancient civilization. The Byzantine-Ottoman wars and the Ottoman wars in Europe resulted in the taking of large numbers of Christian slaves. Similarly, Christians sold Muslim slaves captured in war while the Islamic World was also engaged in slavery. Slavery became common within the British Isles during the Middle Ages. Britain played a prominent role in the Atlantic slave trade, especially after 1600. Slavery was a legal institution in all of the 13 American colonies and Canada (acquired by Britain in 1763). David P. Forsythe wrote: "The fact remained that at the beginning of the nineteenth century an estimated three-quarters of all people alive were trapped in bondage against their will either in some form of slavery or serfdom."Denmark-Norway was the first European country to ban the slave trade.

Abolitionism
Abolitionism is a movement to end slavery, whether formal or informal. In Western Europe and the Americas, abolitionism is a historical movement to end the African and Indian slave trade and set slaves free. King Charles I of Spain, usually known as Emperor Charles V, following the example of the Swedish monarch, passed a law which would have abolished colonial slavery in 1542, although this law was not passed in the largest colonial states, and so was not enforced. Later, in the late 18th century, English and American Quakers began to question the morality of slavery. James Oglethorpe was among the first to articulate the Enlightenment case against slavery, banning it in the Province of Georgia on humanist grounds, arguing against it in Parliament, and eventually encouraging his friends Granville Sharp and Hannah More to vigorously pursue the cause. Soon after his death in 1785, they joined with William Wilberforce and others in forming the Clapham Sect. The Somersett Case in 1772, which emancipated a slave in England, helped launch the British movement to abolish slavery. Though anti-slavery sentiments were widespread by the late 18th century, the colonies and emerging nations that used slave labour continued to do so: French, English and Portuguese territories in the West Indies; South America; and the Southern United States.

Society for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade
The Society for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade, (or The Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade), was a British abolitionist group, formed on 22 May 1787, by twelve men who gathered together at a printing shop in London, England. The Society worked to educate the public about the abuses of the slave trade; it achieved abolition of the international slave trade in 1807, enforced by the Royal Navy. The United States also prohibited the African slave trade that year, to take effect in 1808.
It later was superseded by development of the Anti-Slavery Society in 1823, which worked to abolish the institution of slavery throughout the British colonies. Abolition was passed by parliament in 1833 (except in India, where it was part of the indigenous culture); with emancipation completed by 1838. The ASS continued to work for abolition of slavery in the United States and other nations.
Origins
The first anti-slavery statement was written by Dutch and German Quakers, who met at Germantown, Pennsylvania in 1688. English Quakers began to express their official disapproval of the slave trade in 1727 and promote reforms. From the 1750s, a number of Quakers in Britain's American colonies also began to oppose slavery, and called on English Quakers to take action with parliament. They encouraged their fellow citizens, including Quaker slave owners, to improve conditions for slaves, educate their slaves in Christianity, reading and writing, and gradually emancipate them.

Society
A society is a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification or dominance patterns in subgroups.
Insofar as it is collaborative, a society can enable its members to benefit in ways that would not otherwise be possible on an individual basis; both individual and social (common) benefits can thus be distinguished, or in many cases found to overlap.
A society can also consist of like-minded people governed by their own norms and values within a dominant, larger society. This is sometimes referred to as a subculture, a term used extensively within criminology.

Society (play)
Society was an 1865 comedy drama by Thomas William Robertson regarded as a milestone in Victorian drama because of its realism in sets, costume, acting and dialogue. Unusually for that time, Robertson both wrote and directed the play, and his innovative writing and stage direction inspired George Bernard Shaw and W. S. Gilbert.
Origins
The play originally ran at the Prince of Wales's Theatre, Liverpool, under the management of Mr A. Henderson, opening on 8 May 1865. It was recommended to Effie Wilton, the manager of the Prince of Wales's Theatre in London's West End, by H. J. Byron, where it ran from 11 November 1865 to 4 May 1866 Robertson found fame with his new comedy, which included a scene that fictionalized the Fun gang, who frequented the Arundel Club, the Savage Club, and especially Evans's café, where they had a table in competition with the Punch 'Round table'. The play marked the London debut of Squire Bancroft, who went on to marry Effie Wilton in 1867 and become her co-manager.

Slavery - Crash Course US History #13
In which John Green teaches you about America's "peculiar institution," slavery. I wouldn't really call it peculiar. I'd lean more toward a horrifying and depressing institution, but nobody asked me. John will talk about what life was like for an enslaved person in the 19th century United States, and how enslaved people resisted oppression, to the degree that was possible. We'll hear about cotton plantations, the violent punishment of enslaved people, the day-to-day lives of enslaved people, and slave rebellions. Nat Turner, Harriet Tubman, and Whipped Peter all make an appearance. Slavery as an institution is arguably the darkest part of America's history, and we're still dealing with its aftermath 150 years after it ended.

A Brief History Of The Origins Of Slavery: Chapter 1
When Did Slavery Start? The Origins of Slavery. The history of slavery is as long as the history of humanity and spans almost every single culture and ethnicity. As long as humans have had civilisation, we’ve had ways to subjugate each other. Basically, we all suck. Welcome to A Day In History! Long before the ancient Greeks, Romans, Persians and other civilisations, were even older ones, with few surviving records. Like the Mesopotamians. This civilization gives us our first known records of slavery in law, although even these glimpses of over 4000 years into the past suggest that slavery is much older than the written proof we have today. Fragments of other texts have mentioned slaves in these civilizations, and earlier ones, but the legal records we’ll be looking at in this video a...

And now for a brief history of slavery.
Here’s the first thing you need to know.
Slavery was not “invented” by white people.
It did not start in 1619 when the first slaves came to Jamestown.
It existed before then.
It did not start in 1492 when Columbus discovered the New World.
In fact, when the intrepid explorer landed in the Bahamas, the native Taino
tribe hoped he could help them defeat their aggressive neighbors, the Caribs. The Caribs enslaved the Taino and, on occasion, served them for dinner.
Slavery existed in Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
The word “slave” actually comes from the Slavs of Eastern Europe. Millions of them — all white by the way — were captured and enslaved by Muslims in the ninth century and later by the Ottoman Turks.
Slavery existed when the Roman Empire controlled the Mediterranean and most of Europe from the 1st through the 5th centuries.
Slavery existed when Alexander the Great conquered Persia in the 4th century BC. It was so common that Aristotle simply considered it “natural.” The slave/master model was just how the world operated in the great philosopher’s day.
Slavery existed during the time of the ancient Egyptians five thousand years ago.
As far back we can go in human history, we find slavery.
As renowned historian John Steele Gordon notes, from time immemorial, “slaves were a major item of commerce...As much as a third of the population of the ancient world was enslaved.”
Here’s the second thing you need to know.
White people were the first to formally put an end to slavery.
In 1833, Britain was the first country in the history of the world to pass a Slavery Abolition Act. They were quickly followed by France, who in 1848 abolished slavery in her many colonies. Then, of course, came the
Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. After centuries of human slavery, white men led the world in putting an end to the abhorrent practice.
That includes the 300,000 Union soldiers, overwhelmingly white, who died during the Civil War.
Am I saying that this makes white people better than anyone else?
Of course not.
My purpose here is to simply tell the truth, and the truth is that human history is complicated; no one, regardless of skin color, stands guiltless.
Yet today we are never told to consider the murderous Persian Empire or the cannibalism of indigenous tribes of North and South America, or the heinous actions under the imperialistic Muslim, Chinese, Mongol, or Japanese Empires, to name just a few.
Instead, we’re told that slavery is a white phenomenon.
Like all persistent lies, this lie spawns a bunch of other lies.
On social media I come across extraordinary depictions about how Africans lived liked pharaohs before Europeans came and laid waste to their paradise.
I wish any of this were true. But it’s not. It’s a fantasy.
The truth is that Africans were sold into slavery by other black Africans.
And in many cases, sold for items as trivial as gin and mirrors.
Whites didn’t go into the interior and round up the natives. They waited on the coast for their black partners to bring them black bodies.
The stark reality is that our lives had very little value to our ancestors.
Here’s the third thing you need to know.
If you think slavery is a relic of the past, you’re wrong.
There are some 700,000 slaves in Africa today. Right now. That’s the lowest estimate I could find. Other sources say there are many more.
For context, that’s almost twice as many slaves as were ever brought to the United States. Child soldiers, human trafficking, forced labor—these are the conditions that currently exist within the same sub-Saharan region where the transatlantic slave trade originated.
African bodies are being sold today like they were sold then—and no, they are not being purchased by any country of white men. In fact, slavery, by any traditional definition, is exclusively practiced today within nonwhite countries...

In the early 17th century, the first African slaves were brought to the shores of North America, marking the beginning of a dark chapter in the nation's history. The transatlantic slave trade, which had begun in the late 15th century, saw an estimated 12.5 million Africans forcibly transported across the Atlantic between 1525 and 1866, with around 10.7 million surviving the brutal journey. This human cargo, torn from their homes and families, would become the backbone of the American economy for generations. In 1619, the first recorded African slaves, numbering around 20, arrived in Point Comfort, Virginia, aboard a Dutch ship. This event, though small in scale, set the stage for the systematic enslavement of Africans in the American colonies. As the Ghanaian scholar and poet Abena Busia poignantly observed, "The story of the African in the Americas begins with a river of tears and a trail of blood."
The emergence of slave farms in America was driven primarily by economic motivations. As European colonists settled the New World, they quickly realized the immense potential for agricultural profit. However, the labor-intensive nature of crops like tobacco, cotton, and sugar required a significant workforce. Indentured servants, primarily from Europe, were initially used to meet this demand, but as the need for labor grew, plantation owners turned increasingly to African slaves. In 1705, the Virginia General Assembly passed a law stating that all slaves were to be held in "perpetual servitude," effectively codifying the practice of chattel slavery. This legislation was a response to the growing demand for cheap labor and the perceived need to maintain strict control over the African population. Benjamin Franklin, in a 1773 letter to Dean Woodward, lamented the hypocrisy of the slave trade, writing, "Pharisaical Britain! to pride thyself in setting free a single Slave that happens to land on thy coasts, while thy Merchants in all thy ports are encouraged by thy laws to continue a commerce whereby so many hundreds of thousands are dragged into a slavery that can scarce be said to end with their lives."
The first slave farm in North America was established in 1619 in Jamestown, Virginia. By the late 17th century, slavery had become firmly entrenched in the American colonies, particularly in the South. The invention of the cotton gin by Eli Whitney in 1793 revolutionized the cotton industry, making it even more profitable and leading to a dramatic expansion of slave farms across the southern states. In South Carolina, for example, the slave population grew from around 7,000 in 1700 to over 100,000 by 1790. This rapid expansion was fueled by the insatiable demand for cotton from the textile mills of the North and Great Britain. As the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison observed in 1831, "We are going to decide the question whether the slaveholding, soul-driving system, shall be continued, - whether the bosoms of our Northern freemen shall be made the receptacles of its spoils, and their hearts the abettors of its abominations."
Slave farms quickly spread across the American South, concentrating in the coastal regions of South Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia, as well as the fertile lands along the Mississippi River in Louisiana and Mississippi. The 1860 United States Census recorded a slave population of nearly 4 million, with the majority living and working on the estimated 46,200 plantations throughout the South. In Louisiana, the number of slaves grew from around 4,000 in 1720 to over 331,000 by 1860, with many working on the state's infamous sugarcane plantations. The Whitney Plantation in Wallace, Louisiana, which is now a museum dedicated to the history of slavery, serves as a stark reminder of the brutality and scale of the slave trade. As the former slave and abolitionist Henry Bibb wrote in his 1849 autobiography, "Slavery is a system of in humanity, that is founded in blood, cherished in blood, and can only be abolished in blood."

The emergence of slave farms in America was driven primarily by economic motivations. As European colonists settled the New World, they quickly realized the immense potential for agricultural profit. However, the labor-intensive nature of crops like tobacco, cotton, and sugar required a significant workforce. Indentured servants, primarily from Europe, were initially used to meet this demand, but as the need for labor grew, plantation owners turned increasingly to African slaves. In 1705, the Virginia General Assembly passed a law stating that all slaves were to be held in "perpetual servitude," effectively codifying the practice of chattel slavery. This legislation was a response to the growing demand for cheap labor and the perceived need to maintain strict control over the African population. Benjamin Franklin, in a 1773 letter to Dean Woodward, lamented the hypocrisy of the slave trade, writing, "Pharisaical Britain! to pride thyself in setting free a single Slave that happens to land on thy coasts, while thy Merchants in all thy ports are encouraged by thy laws to continue a commerce whereby so many hundreds of thousands are dragged into a slavery that can scarce be said to end with their lives."
The first slave farm in North America was established in 1619 in Jamestown, Virginia. By the late 17th century, slavery had become firmly entrenched in the American colonies, particularly in the South. The invention of the cotton gin by Eli Whitney in 1793 revolutionized the cotton industry, making it even more profitable and leading to a dramatic expansion of slave farms across the southern states. In South Carolina, for example, the slave population grew from around 7,000 in 1700 to over 100,000 by 1790. This rapid expansion was fueled by the insatiable demand for cotton from the textile mills of the North and Great Britain. As the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison observed in 1831, "We are going to decide the question whether the slaveholding, soul-driving system, shall be continued, - whether the bosoms of our Northern freemen shall be made the receptacles of its spoils, and their hearts the abettors of its abominations."
Slave farms quickly spread across the American South, concentrating in the coastal regions of South Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia, as well as the fertile lands along the Mississippi River in Louisiana and Mississippi. The 1860 United States Census recorded a slave population of nearly 4 million, with the majority living and working on the estimated 46,200 plantations throughout the South. In Louisiana, the number of slaves grew from around 4,000 in 1720 to over 331,000 by 1860, with many working on the state's infamous sugarcane plantations. The Whitney Plantation in Wallace, Louisiana, which is now a museum dedicated to the history of slavery, serves as a stark reminder of the brutality and scale of the slave trade. As the former slave and abolitionist Henry Bibb wrote in his 1849 autobiography, "Slavery is a system of in humanity, that is founded in blood, cherished in blood, and can only be abolished in blood."

In which John Green teaches you about America's "peculiar institution," slavery. I wouldn't really call it peculiar. I'd lean more toward a horrifying and depressing institution, but nobody asked me. John will talk about what life was like for an enslaved person in the 19th century United States, and how enslaved people resisted oppression, to the degree that was possible. We'll hear about cotton plantations, the violent punishment of enslaved people, the day-to-day lives of enslaved people, and slave rebellions. Nat Turner, Harriet Tubman, and Whipped Peter all make an appearance. Slavery as an institution is arguably the darkest part of America's history, and we're still dealing with its aftermath 150 years after it ended.

When Did Slavery Start? The Origins of Slavery.
The history of slavery is as long as the history of humanity and spans almost every single culture and ethnicity. As long as humans have had civilisation, we’ve had ways to subjugate each other.
Basically, we all suck. Welcome to A Day In History!
Long before the ancient Greeks, Romans, Persians and other civilisations, were even older ones, with few surviving records. Like the Mesopotamians.
This civilization gives us our first known records of slavery in law, although even these glimpses of over 4000 years into the past suggest that slavery is much older than the written proof we have today. Fragments of other texts have mentioned slaves in these civilizations, and earlier ones, but the legal records we’ll be looking at in this video are the ones from where we can distinguish the most information.
So, what are the first recorded instances of slavery? Let’s take a look and don’t forget to check out part 2 for a brief timeline of slavery all the way from these ancient records to modern day.
The First Evidence of Slavery: Pre-Written Records
In early civilisations, there are legal codes that include some of the first written, recorded instances of slavery, all of which are from different, but similar periods in Ancient Mesopotamia. The main five we’ll be looking at are The Code of Ur-Nammu, The Code of Eshnunna, The Code of Lipit-Ishtar, The Code of Hammurabi and The Code of Nesilim.
Each was inscribed on ancient tablets, or pieces of stele and contain multiple mentions and legal proceedings to do with slaves, suggesting it was a key part of the ancient civilisation’s workings and existed long before the records we have since uncovered suggest.

Join this channel to support Civil War storytelling and to get perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdFCa_7HtbBOINg7aZ419ig/join The stage: the town of Alton in southern Illinois. The date of the act committed: the 7th of November, 1837. On that Tuesday, an angry mob murdered Elijah Lovejoy, the Presbyterian minister who was the founder of the Illinois State Anti-Slave Society. Two days later, some 500 miles east in Hudson Ohio, a church congregation held a memorial service to honor the murdered activist. Owen Brown opened the gathering with a long, tearful prayer. At its conclusion, there was a long silence. Then, in the back, Owen Brown’s son rose and, stiffly, raised his right hand, then vowed, “Here before God, in the presence of these witnesses, I consecrate my life to the de...

Columbus Neighborhoods: Abolitionism and the Civil War
The Worthington Anti-Slavery Society was formed in 1836. Its founders included Ansel Mattoon and Ozem Gardner. Their homes were two of several houses in Worthington that served as stations on the Underground Railroad. In helping escaped slaves reach freedom, Worthington’s abolitionists defied the federal fugitive slave law. They also apparently had little regard for Ohio’s black laws, which prohibited African-American children from attending white schools in the state.

Discover the powerful history of the abolitionist movement, which fought tirelessly for the immediate emancipation of all slaves and the end of racial discrimination and inequality. This video explores the origins of abolitionism in the 18th and 19th centuries, highlighting the moral, religious, and humanitarian arguments that fueled the fight against slavery. Learn about key figures like Frederick Douglass and William Wilberforce, and the significant milestones, including the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade and the passage of the 13th Amendment in the United States. Join us as we celebrate the perseverance and activism that transformed societies and laid the foundation for future struggles against injustice.
Here is a detailed information:
Abolitionism was a social and political movement primarily active in the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly in Europe and the Americas. Its goal was the immediate emancipation of all slaves and the end of racial discrimination and inequality. This movement arose in response to the widespread practice of slavery, which treated human beings as property to be bought, sold, and exploited for labor.
To understand abolitionism, we must first grasp the background of slavery itself. Slavery has existed throughout history in various forms and was deeply entrenched in the economies of many nations during the 18th and 19th centuries. For example, in the United States, the southern states relied heavily on enslaved labor for their agricultural industries, particularly cotton production. This economic dependence made the abolition of slavery a highly contentious and challenging issue.
Abolitionists argued passionately against the institution of slavery on moral, religious, and humanitarian grounds. They highlighted the brutal realities of slave life—separation of families, harsh working conditions, and systemic abuse—to sway public opinion against the practice. One prominent abolitionist was Frederick Douglass, a former slave who became a leading figure in the American abolitionist movement. Douglass eloquently spoke about his own experiences as a slave and tirelessly campaigned for the abolition of slavery through speeches, writings, and activism.
Transitioning to the challenges faced by abolitionists, we encounter significant opposition from those who benefited economically from slavery, as well as from those who held racist beliefs. Slave owners and their allies argued that slavery was essential for the economy and that slaves were inferior and unable to function as free citizens. These entrenched interests created formidable barriers to the abolitionist cause, leading to heated debates and, in some cases, violent confrontations.
Despite these challenges, abolitionists persisted in their efforts, forming organizations, writing pamphlets and newspapers, and engaging in legal and political battles. In Britain, for example, William Wilberforce and his allies in Parliament fought for decades to pass laws that eventually led to the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade in 1807 and slavery itself throughout the British Empire in 1833.
In the United States, the abolitionist movement gained momentum over decades, culminating in the Civil War from 1861 to 1865. The war ultimately led to the abolition of slavery with the passage of the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1865. This monumental achievement was the result of decades of struggle and sacrifice by abolitionists and the broader anti-slavery movement.
In conclusion, abolitionism was a transformative movement that sought to eradicate the deeply entrenched institution of slavery. It faced numerous challenges, including economic interests, racial prejudices, and legal obstacles, but through perseverance and activism, abolitionists were able to bring about significant social change. Their efforts not only liberated millions from bondage but also laid the groundwork for future struggles against racial discrimination and inequality. Abolitionism serves as a powerful example of how dedicated individuals and movements can challenge and overcome injustice in society.

The stage: the town of Alton in southern Illinois. The date of the act committed: the 7th of November, 1837. On that Tuesday, an angry mob murdered Elijah Lovejoy, the Presbyterian minister who was the founder of the Illinois State Anti-Slave Society.
Two days later, some 500 miles east in Hudson Ohio, a church congregation held a memorial service to honor the murdered activist. Owen Brown opened the gathering with a long, tearful prayer. At its conclusion, there was a long silence.
Then, in the back, Owen Brown’s son rose and, stiffly, raised his right hand, then vowed, “Here before God, in the presence of these witnesses, I consecrate my life to the destruction of slavery.” It was 37-year-old John Brown’s first public statement on the inflammatory issue and, as time would tell, his message and actions would be ominous.
And yet, on that Tuesday and in that service, this was John Brown of Hudson, Ohio. It would take time and events to fully create the John Brown of “Bleeding” Kansas and Harpers Ferry. From crusader to Old Testament avenging angel, this is his story.

2. The Abolitionist Movement really began after the Missouri Compromise and what other event?
3. What book did Harriet Beecher Stowe write that exposed the evils of slavery?
4. TRUE OR FALSE: Abraham Lincoln was an abolitionist.
5. Are there issues today that people argue for or against that they are considered to be extreme for their views? Do you believe someday they will be viewed as heroes as the abolitionists of the 1800s are? Why or why not?

The Worthington Anti-Slavery Society was formed in 1836. Its founders included Ansel Mattoon and Ozem Gardner. Their homes were two of several houses in Worthington that served as stations on the Underground Railroad.
In helping escaped slaves reach freedom, Worthington’s abolitionists defied the federal fugitive slave law. They also apparently had little regard for Ohio’s black laws, which prohibited African-American children from attending white schools in the state.

Slavery didn’t start in 1492 when Columbus came to the New World. And it didn’t start in 1619 when the first slaves landed in Jamestown. It’s not a white phenomenon. The real story of slavery is long and complex. Candace Owens explains.

Script:
And now for a brief history of slavery.
Here’s the first thing you need to know.
Slavery was not “invented” by white people.
It did not start in 1619 when the first slaves came to Jamestown.
It existed before then.
It did not start in 1492 when Columbus discovered the New World.
In fact, when the intrepid explorer landed in the Bahamas, the native Taino
tribe hoped he could help them defeat their aggressive neighbors, the Caribs. The Caribs enslaved the Taino and, on occasion, served them for dinner.
Slavery existed in Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
The word “slave” actually comes from the Slavs of Eastern Europe. Millions of them — all white by the way — were captured and enslaved by Muslims in the ninth century and later by the Ottoman Turks.
Slavery existed when the Roman Empire controlled the Mediterranean and most of Europe from the 1st through the 5th centuries.
Slavery existed when Alexander the Great conquered Persia in the 4th century BC. It was so common that Aristotle simply considered it “natural.” The slave/master model was just how the world operated in the great philosopher’s day.
Slavery existed during the time of the ancient Egyptians five thousand years ago.
As far back we can go in human history, we find slavery.
As renowned historian John Steele Gordon notes, from time immemorial, “slaves were a major item of commerce...As much as a third of the population of the ancient world was enslaved.”
Here’s the second thing you need to know.
White people were the first to formally put an end to slavery.
In 1833, Britain was the first country in the history of the world to pass a Slavery Abolition Act. They were quickly followed by France, who in 1848 abolished slavery in her many colonies. Then, of course, came the
Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. After centuries of human slavery, white men led the world in putting an end to the abhorrent practice.
That includes the 300,000 Union soldiers, overwhelmingly white, who died during the Civil War.
Am I saying that this makes white people better than anyone else?
Of course not.
My purpose here is to simply tell the truth, and the truth is that human history is complicated; no one, regardless of skin color, stands guiltless.
Yet today we are never told to consider the murderous Persian Empire or the cannibalism of indigenous tribes of North and South America, or the heinous actions under the imperialistic Muslim, Chinese, Mongol, or Japanese Empires, to name just a few.
Instead, we’re told that slavery is a white phenomenon.
Like all persistent lies, this lie spawns a bunch of other lies.
On social media I come across extraordinary depictions about how Africans lived liked pharaohs before Europeans came and laid waste to their paradise.
I wish any of this were true. But it’s not. It’s a fantasy.
The truth is that Africans were sold into slavery by other black Africans.
And in many cases, sold for items as trivial as gin and mirrors.
Whites didn’t go into the interior and round up the natives. They waited on the coast for their black partners to bring them black bodies.
The stark reality is that our lives had very little value to our ancestors.
Here’s the third thing you need to know.
If you think slavery is a relic of the past, you’re wrong.
There are some 700,000 slaves in Africa today. Right now. That’s the lowest estimate I could find. Other sources say there are many more.
For context, that’s almost twice as many slaves as were ever brought to the United States. Child soldiers, human trafficking, forced labor—these are the conditions that currently exist within the same sub-Saharan region where the transatlantic slave trade originated.
African bodies are being sold today like they were sold then—and no, they are not being purchased by any country of white men. In fact, slavery, by any traditional definition, is exclusively practiced today within nonwhite countries...

In the early 17th century, the first African slaves were brought to the shores of North America, marking the beginning of a dark chapter in the nation's history. The transatlantic slave trade, which had begun in the late 15th century, saw an estimated 12.5 million Africans forcibly transported across the Atlantic between 1525 and 1866, with around 10.7 million surviving the brutal journey. This human cargo, torn from their homes and families, would become the backbone of the American economy for generations. In 1619, the first recorded African slaves, numbering around 20, arrived in Point Comfort, Virginia, aboard a Dutch ship. This event, though small in scale, set the stage for the systematic enslavement of Africans in the American colonies. As the Ghanaian scholar and poet Abena Busia poignantly observed, "The story of the African in the Americas begins with a river of tears and a trail of blood."
The emergence of slave farms in America was driven primarily by economic motivations. As European colonists settled the New World, they quickly realized the immense potential for agricultural profit. However, the labor-intensive nature of crops like tobacco, cotton, and sugar required a significant workforce. Indentured servants, primarily from Europe, were initially used to meet this demand, but as the need for labor grew, plantation owners turned increasingly to African slaves. In 1705, the Virginia General Assembly passed a law stating that all slaves were to be held in "perpetual servitude," effectively codifying the practice of chattel slavery. This legislation was a response to the growing demand for cheap labor and the perceived need to maintain strict control over the African population. Benjamin Franklin, in a 1773 letter to Dean Woodward, lamented the hypocrisy of the slave trade, writing, "Pharisaical Britain! to pride thyself in setting free a single Slave that happens to land on thy coasts, while thy Merchants in all thy ports are encouraged by thy laws to continue a commerce whereby so many hundreds of thousands are dragged into a slavery that can scarce be said to end with their lives."
The first slave farm in North America was established in 1619 in Jamestown, Virginia. By the late 17th century, slavery had become firmly entrenched in the American colonies, particularly in the South. The invention of the cotton gin by Eli Whitney in 1793 revolutionized the cotton industry, making it even more profitable and leading to a dramatic expansion of slave farms across the southern states. In South Carolina, for example, the slave population grew from around 7,000 in 1700 to over 100,000 by 1790. This rapid expansion was fueled by the insatiable demand for cotton from the textile mills of the North and Great Britain. As the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison observed in 1831, "We are going to decide the question whether the slaveholding, soul-driving system, shall be continued, - whether the bosoms of our Northern freemen shall be made the receptacles of its spoils, and their hearts the abettors of its abominations."
Slave farms quickly spread across the American South, concentrating in the coastal regions of South Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia, as well as the fertile lands along the Mississippi River in Louisiana and Mississippi. The 1860 United States Census recorded a slave population of nearly 4 million, with the majority living and working on the estimated 46,200 plantations throughout the South. In Louisiana, the number of slaves grew from around 4,000 in 1720 to over 331,000 by 1860, with many working on the state's infamous sugarcane plantations. The Whitney Plantation in Wallace, Louisiana, which is now a museum dedicated to the history of slavery, serves as a stark reminder of the brutality and scale of the slave trade. As the former slave and abolitionist Henry Bibb wrote in his 1849 autobiography, "Slavery is a system of in humanity, that is founded in blood, cherished in blood, and can only be abolished in blood."

In which John Green teaches you about America's "peculiar institution," slavery. I wouldn't really call it peculiar. I'd lean more toward a horrifying and depressing institution, but nobody asked me. John will talk about what life was like for an enslaved person in the 19th century United States, and how enslaved people resisted oppression, to the degree that was possible. We'll hear about cotton plantations, the violent punishment of enslaved people, the day-to-day lives of enslaved people, and slave rebellions. Nat Turner, Harriet Tubman, and Whipped Peter all make an appearance. Slavery as an institution is arguably the darkest part of America's history, and we're still dealing with its aftermath 150 years after it ended.

When Did Slavery Start? The Origins of Slavery.
The history of slavery is as long as the history of humanity and spans almost every single culture and ethnicity. As long as humans have had civilisation, we’ve had ways to subjugate each other.
Basically, we all suck. Welcome to A Day In History!
Long before the ancient Greeks, Romans, Persians and other civilisations, were even older ones, with few surviving records. Like the Mesopotamians.
This civilization gives us our first known records of slavery in law, although even these glimpses of over 4000 years into the past suggest that slavery is much older than the written proof we have today. Fragments of other texts have mentioned slaves in these civilizations, and earlier ones, but the legal records we’ll be looking at in this video are the ones from where we can distinguish the most information.
So, what are the first recorded instances of slavery? Let’s take a look and don’t forget to check out part 2 for a brief timeline of slavery all the way from these ancient records to modern day.
The First Evidence of Slavery: Pre-Written Records
In early civilisations, there are legal codes that include some of the first written, recorded instances of slavery, all of which are from different, but similar periods in Ancient Mesopotamia. The main five we’ll be looking at are The Code of Ur-Nammu, The Code of Eshnunna, The Code of Lipit-Ishtar, The Code of Hammurabi and The Code of Nesilim.
Each was inscribed on ancient tablets, or pieces of stele and contain multiple mentions and legal proceedings to do with slaves, suggesting it was a key part of the ancient civilisation’s workings and existed long before the records we have since uncovered suggest.

The history of humanity is filled with oppression, dominance, war, and slavery. Since the beginning of time, people in different parts of the world have forced their fellow humans into slavery.
The tale of the Atlantic Slave Trade is the history of millions of Africans who were forced out of their communities by European slave traders and shipped across the Atlantic in conditions of great cruelty.

History of slavery
The history of slavery spans nearly every culture, nationality and religion and from ancient times to the present day. However the social, economic, and legal position of slaves was vastly different in different systems of slavery in different times and places.
Slavery can be traced back to the earliest records, such as the Code of Hammurabi (c. 1760 BC), which refers to it as an established institution. Slavery is rare among hunter-gatherer populations, as it is developed as a system of social stratification. Slavery was known in civilizations as old as Sumer, as well as almost every other ancient civilization. The Byzantine-Ottoman wars and the Ottoman wars in Europe resulted in the taking of large numbers of Christian slaves. Similarly, Christians sold Muslim slaves captured in war while the Islamic World was also engaged in slavery. Slavery became common within the British Isles during the Middle Ages. Britain played a prominent role in the Atlantic slave trade, especially after 1600. Slavery was a legal institution in all of the 13 American colonies and Canada (acquired by Britain in 1763). David P. Forsythe wrote: "The fact remained that at the beginning of the nineteenth century an estimated three-quarters of all people alive were trapped in bondage against their will either in some form of slavery or serfdom."Denmark-Norway was the first European country to ban the slave trade.

Discover the powerful history of the abolitionist movement, which fought tirelessly for the immediate emancipation of all slaves and the end of racial discrimination and inequality. This video explores the origins of abolitionism in the 18th and 19th centuries, highlighting the moral, religious, and humanitarian arguments that fueled the fight against slavery. Learn about key figures like Frederick Douglass and William Wilberforce, and the significant milestones, including the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade and the passage of the 13th Amendment in the United States. Join us as we celebrate the perseverance and activism that transformed societies and laid the foundation for future struggles against injustice.
Here is a detailed information:
Abolitionism was a social and political movement primarily active in the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly in Europe and the Americas. Its goal was the immediate emancipation of all slaves and the end of racial discrimination and inequality. This movement arose in response to the widespread practice of slavery, which treated human beings as property to be bought, sold, and exploited for labor.
To understand abolitionism, we must first grasp the background of slavery itself. Slavery has existed throughout history in various forms and was deeply entrenched in the economies of many nations during the 18th and 19th centuries. For example, in the United States, the southern states relied heavily on enslaved labor for their agricultural industries, particularly cotton production. This economic dependence made the abolition of slavery a highly contentious and challenging issue.
Abolitionists argued passionately against the institution of slavery on moral, religious, and humanitarian grounds. They highlighted the brutal realities of slave life—separation of families, harsh working conditions, and systemic abuse—to sway public opinion against the practice. One prominent abolitionist was Frederick Douglass, a former slave who became a leading figure in the American abolitionist movement. Douglass eloquently spoke about his own experiences as a slave and tirelessly campaigned for the abolition of slavery through speeches, writings, and activism.
Transitioning to the challenges faced by abolitionists, we encounter significant opposition from those who benefited economically from slavery, as well as from those who held racist beliefs. Slave owners and their allies argued that slavery was essential for the economy and that slaves were inferior and unable to function as free citizens. These entrenched interests created formidable barriers to the abolitionist cause, leading to heated debates and, in some cases, violent confrontations.
Despite these challenges, abolitionists persisted in their efforts, forming organizations, writing pamphlets and newspapers, and engaging in legal and political battles. In Britain, for example, William Wilberforce and his allies in Parliament fought for decades to pass laws that eventually led to the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade in 1807 and slavery itself throughout the British Empire in 1833.
In the United States, the abolitionist movement gained momentum over decades, culminating in the Civil War from 1861 to 1865. The war ultimately led to the abolition of slavery with the passage of the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1865. This monumental achievement was the result of decades of struggle and sacrifice by abolitionists and the broader anti-slavery movement.
In conclusion, abolitionism was a transformative movement that sought to eradicate the deeply entrenched institution of slavery. It faced numerous challenges, including economic interests, racial prejudices, and legal obstacles, but through perseverance and activism, abolitionists were able to bring about significant social change. Their efforts not only liberated millions from bondage but also laid the groundwork for future struggles against racial discrimination and inequality. Abolitionism serves as a powerful example of how dedicated individuals and movements can challenge and overcome injustice in society.

The stage: the town of Alton in southern Illinois. The date of the act committed: the 7th of November, 1837. On that Tuesday, an angry mob murdered Elijah Lovejoy, the Presbyterian minister who was the founder of the Illinois State Anti-Slave Society.
Two days later, some 500 miles east in Hudson Ohio, a church congregation held a memorial service to honor the murdered activist. Owen Brown opened the gathering with a long, tearful prayer. At its conclusion, there was a long silence.
Then, in the back, Owen Brown’s son rose and, stiffly, raised his right hand, then vowed, “Here before God, in the presence of these witnesses, I consecrate my life to the destruction of slavery.” It was 37-year-old John Brown’s first public statement on the inflammatory issue and, as time would tell, his message and actions would be ominous.
And yet, on that Tuesday and in that service, this was John Brown of Hudson, Ohio. It would take time and events to fully create the John Brown of “Bleeding” Kansas and Harpers Ferry. From crusader to Old Testament avenging angel, this is his story.

Abolitionist Movement in America through the mid-1800 highlighted the great injustice of slavery. Abolitionists faced threats and discrimination in order to spread the message that slavery was a moral evil. Questions below:
1. In the mid-1800s most people that opposed slavery opposed on what grounds or for what reason?
2. The Abolitionist Movement really began after the Missouri Compromise and what other event?
3. What book did Harriet Beecher Stowe write that exposed the evils of slavery?
4. TRUE OR FALSE: Abraham Lincoln was an abolitionist.
5. Are there issues today that people argue for or against that they are considered to be extreme for their views? Do you believe someday they will be viewed as heroes as the abolitionists of the 1800s are? Why or why not?

The Worthington Anti-Slavery Society was formed in 1836. Its founders included Ansel Mattoon and Ozem Gardner. Their homes were two of several houses in Worthington that served as stations on the Underground Railroad.
In helping escaped slaves reach freedom, Worthington’s abolitionists defied the federal fugitive slave law. They also apparently had little regard for Ohio’s black laws, which prohibited African-American children from attending white schools in the state.

Slave Trade
by: Thompson TwinsSophisticated slave trade rhythmically admired
Give me a punctual bliss
He's in love with a velvet glove
Soon he'll feel the fist
His senses are reeling
He can't sit still
He's got that same old feeling
The same old thrill
The same old thrill
Goose flesh, giggling, stimulating scenes
Pleasure is a means to the end
Hedonistic high time
He can't get enough
Physical encounters can offend
Drinking like a fish out of water high and dry
When there's no tomorrow he doesn't even try
Don't take a walk, when it's easier to run
Don't take it easy
No don't take it
Don't you touch the flesh, the fragile flesh
He's never going to get near the heart
He can prodel, he can poke but it won't get him closer
He's only playing a part
Across the threshold he feels his nostrils flare
The stifling perfume is so thick in there
Don't take a walk, when it's easier to run
Don't take it easy, no don't take it
Don't take it easy, Don't take it easy
Don't take it, Don't take it
Don't take it, Don't take it
Don't take it, Don't take it
Don't take it, Don't take it
Sophisticated slave trade rhythmically admired
Give me a punctual bliss
He's in love with a velvet glove
Soon he'll feel the fist
His senses are reeling
He can't sit still
