About this listen

A hidden history, A global crime, The truth they never wanted you to know about the Transatlantic Slave Trade

For centuries, the transatlantic slave trade was one of the most ruthless and profitable enterprises in history—yet much of its true story has been buried, distorted, or forgotten. This book exposes the raw, unfiltered truth of how millions of Africans were captured, transported, and exploited in a vast network of greed, power, and human suffering.

Most people think they know the story. They don’t.

The secret role of European banks and insurance companies that made millions from slavery
How African rulers helped the trade grow—and why some later regretted it
The brutal kidnapping methods that fueled a multi-billion-dollar industry
The shocking reality of the Middle Passage—why many slaves chose death over survival
The hidden history of slave rebellions—why thousands fought back, and how history erased them
How Britain, France, and Spain secretly continued the trade even after "banning" it
Why slavery didn’t truly end in the 1800s—and how its legacy still shapes global wealth today

This isn’t the watered-down version of history found in textbooks. This is the truth they don’t want you to know.
