The best comprehensive book I have read on slavery.

No doubt slavery was wrong in every form. I wish every black and white student would be required to read this book. It is not a slant to protect whites or blacks. It paints a picture of this evil, it perpetrators both black and white. Simple things like most blacks were captured by fellow black tribesmen and sold to the European slave ships. Only 6% of slaves came to America and the lasting evil is blacks do not get the same education white kids do. We have come a long way but much more to do. I highly recommend this book.

Exhaustive history and context

I've been woefully undereducated about the history of slavery. It's our responsibility to know the real story, and this book does an incredibly good job of giving the history, the context, the facts and figures, and the ripple effects that are still very much present today. Well-organized and well-produced also. Recommend!

Tragic history revealed

Unravel the truth behind slavery. Being African American this is a topic that has always enraged me. But it is a small part of our history, and books like this unveil the evil truths. I’m saddened that this book had to be written.

My Heritage And Blackness ....

... has spawned a growing nasty tradition of white supremacy fostered and perpetrated by the likes of William Lynch, Thomas Jefferson, and George Wallace among countless others. They have raised the expectations of white people of endless supremacy much to their demise. This book clearly outlines what the slave trade fostered: A horrible legacy we must crush now and forever!

Shocking but notice-worthy history

I feel sorrowful for these unfortunate people, and I'm so grateful that I live an okay life listening to this audiobook without suppression but not being a slave. Many people were slaves from their childhoods. That's so sad! This significant history should be passed on so that more and more people nowadays won't do cruel things like this to others. Highly recommended.

So interesting!

If you're into history or somehow into unknown or untold informations, then this is a good book to listen. I find it so shocking to know the deep story of this slavery. It's so unfortunate to those people who suffered slavery while some of them are enjoying their life. Lots of interesting facts you will know in this book. A worthy one!

learning new history.

a lot of history has been scraped from all aspects of the public's eyes. this book dives into forgotten topics and the research shows how much detail was listed. narrator was a little blah for me. but that is my own preference. good book to broaden your history lessons
