Jackson), comes a rich and revealing narrative of the true global and human scope of the transatlantic slave trade. The trade existed for 400 years, during which 12 million people were trafficked, and 2 million would die en route. In these pages we meet the remarkable group, Diving with a Purpose (DWP), as they dive sunken slave ships all around the world. They search for remains and artifacts testifying to the millions of kidnapped Africans that were transported to Europe, the Americas, and the Caribbean. From manilla bracelets to shackles, cargo, and other possessions, the finds from these wrecks bring the stories of lost lives back to the surface. As we follow the men and women of DWP across eleven countries, Jacobovici and Kingsley's rich research puts the archaeology and history of these wrecks that lost between 1670 to 1858 in vivid context. From the ports of Gold Coast Africa, to the corporate hubs of trading companies of England, Portugal and the Netherlands, and the final destinations in the New World, Jacobovici and Kingsley show how the slave trade touched every nation and every society on earth. Though global in scope, Enslaved makes history personal as we experience the divers' sadness, anger, reverence, and awe as they hold tangible pieces of their ancestors' world in their hands. What those people suffered on board those ships can never be forgiven. Enslaved works to ensure that it will always be remembered and understood, and is the first book to tell the story of the transatlantic slave trade from the bottom of the sea"--Publisher's website. 610 20 $a Amistad (Schooner) 650 0 $a Transatlantic slave trade $x History. 650 0 $a Slave trade $x History $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Slave trade $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Slave ships $x History $y 17th century. 650 0 $a Slave ships $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Deep diving. 650 0 $a Shipwrecks. 700 1 $a Kingsley, Sean. 700 1 $a Jones, Brenda D. 941 $a 2 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716040721.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011756.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D141DAC41D5411EE85C7632C52ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
