No Customer Reviews
"Dr. Chavis shows us that the fight against the legacy of the transatlantic slave trade is not just about seeking justice for past wrongs but about dismantling the present systems of oppression that have evolved from it." - From the Foreword by CHUCK D The Transatlantic Slave Trade: Overcoming the 500-Year Legacy is a profound exploration of one of humanity's darkest chapters. Co-authored by National Newspapers Publishers Association (NNPA) Senior National Correspondent Stacy M. Brown and renowned historian Dr. Benjamin Chavis, this book delves into the enduring impacts and legacies of the transatlantic slave trade from 1500 to 2024. The transatlantic slave trade is a brutal scar on the face of humanity, a monstrous crime that tore millions of Africans from their homeland, dehumanized them, and built the so-called American dream on their blood, sweat, and tears. This isn't just history--it's the very foundation of the systemic racism that still plagues America today. To understand the real roots of the struggle, one must return to where it all began. And that's precisely what this book does--unflinchingly and unapologetically.
