1 gen 1619 anni - First Slave Ship to America

Descrizione:

Slavery in America started in 1619, when a Dutch ship brought 20 African slaves ashore in the British colony of Jamestown, Virginia. Though it is impossible to give accurate figures, some historians have estimated that 6 to 7 million black slaves were imported to the New World during the 18th century alone, depriving the African continent of some of its healthiest and ablest men and women. This was the beginning of a very sad time in history were we did not treat each other with respect.
