T
he transatlantic slave trade is one of the
most shameful chapters in human history.
Between 1500 and 1900 it’s estimated that
around 12 million African men, women and
children were stolen from their homes by Europeans,
before being forcefully transported thousands of miles
across the Atlantic. Those who survived the horrific
‘Middle Passage’ would then be sold, often separated
from their families, and put to work as enslaved labour
on plantations throughout the New World. While this
inhumane trade was eventually abolished in the 19th
century, the scars still remain and the lasting impact is
still being felt by communities around the world.
In this bookazine, we seek to tell the story of the
transatlantic slave trade – from its origins to its abolition.
We discover the impact on Africa, the horrors of the
Middle Passage and what life was like for millions of
enslaved people. We also look to explore the legacies
of slavery and how the effects are still being felt in the
modern world.
