Slave trade map
Last week, we learned about the triangular slave and what happened to the people in South Africa who were taken and chained to ships. We started by talking about how Americans treat Americans when they are forced to be taken from their homes and sold into slavery. They were exchanged for goods and chained to each other and to the floorboards of the boats. They are very close and malnutrition causes the death of some of them. They were not released so if they died the people next to them were waiting there with a dead person next to them praying that they did not die there next door.
