1 janv. 1808 - End of the Slave Trade

Description:

The end of the slave trade in the United States occurred with the implementation of the Act Prohibiting Importation of Slaves, which took effect in 1808. This federal law made it illegal to import slaves from abroad, aligning with the constitutional provision that allowed Congress to ban the slave trade 20 years after the ratification of the Constitution.
