Atlantic Slave Trade Podcast

From the course "The Atlantic Slave Trade and Africans in the Making of the Atlantic World, 1450-1850"

About the Podcasts

These podcasts were created in Professor Jeremy Ball's
"The Atlantic Slave Trade and Africans in the Making of the Atlantic World, 1450-1850" course.

Course Description:
During several centuries of European colonization in the New World, a thriving slave trade forced the emigration of millions of Africans across the Atlantic, an immigration far larger than the simultaneous immigration of Europeans to the same regions.

We will address not only the workings of the slave trade on both sides (and in the middle) of the Atlantic, but also the cultural communities of West and West-Central Africa and encounters and exchanges in the new slave societies of North and South America.

Through examination of work processes, social orders, cultural strategies and influences, and ideas about race and geography, across time and in several regions, we will explore the crucial roles of Africans in the making of the Atlantic world.
