After discussing the Atlantic slave trade in 10th World History today, I thought it would be good to post the primary source that we used to gain a visual understanding of conditions on board slave ships. Here it is.
We also read this primary source in class: Olaudah Equiano's Description of the Middle Passage (1789)
Also, check out this resource that I've posted before: The Atlantic Slave Trade in Two Minutes
This primary source comes from the Records of the Office of the Chief of Engineers.
