Book excerpt: Reverend Pascoe G. Hill has left us a chilling testament. Fifty Days on Board A Slave Vessel is his unforgettable account of life on a slave ship. Hill's narrative locks fifty days into an existence of forever. It is a forever that haunts, not from the fear of the unknown, but the fear of the known. Because of Hill and Fifty Days we can know. At the relatively safe distance of more than one hundred years away from Hill's time we know, as he did, the extended suffering of enslaved Africans. We know and hear the "shrieks of the sufferers through the gloom of night, rising above the noise of the winds and waves." We know, see and reach across generations to feel the lash of the whip-punishment meted out for daring to "steal" water. Serving as a doctor on board the ship, Hill recorded these acts and more in his journal of the voyage. It is predictable that readers will feel discomfort and pain as they read this book. It must be kept in mind that Fifty Days was written to support the crusade against slavery. Our pain is our connection with the crusade. It is also our connection with the millions of enslaved Africans who suffered the great rape of personhood. They are not forgotten. Fifty Days is an important reminder of the horrors of the exploitive African Slave Trade. Hill's account of the stench, overcrowding, acts of depravity and murder has the effect of strong medicine. It clears your head and you never, never want to get sick again.

Book Fifty Days on Board a Slave Vessel  annotated

Download or read book Fifty Days on Board a Slave Vessel annotated written by Pascoe Grenfell Hill and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-21 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's been almost 180 years since Reverend Pascoe Grenfell Hill wrote his memoirs of boarding a Brazilian slaver in southwest Africa. As he kept a private diary of the major events since joining the crew of H.M.S. Cleopatra at Rio de Janeiro, the reader is transported to a world that brings two kinds of surprises: the first kind, born of recognizing things that came before and can still be found, though much changed or as relics of the past. The second, due to the uncomfortable realization of how our world still denies its past; how Western civilization, supposedly more advanced than the rest of the world, still created the conditions for terrible crimes against fellow human beings.This edition, produced by Templo Books, brings over 130 notes seeking to help 21st century readers in knowing the details that Rev. Hill assumes everyone knows. Names, places, geographical features, literature references, and monetary values have been carefully researched, thus allowing a better understanding for those unfamiliar with Brazil, Mozambique, Madagascar and South Africa.A major difference from previous editions is the organization of the entries in separate chapters, allowing for a more friendly experience. Small typos were rectified and translations were given to expressions in Latin, Greek, French, Portuguese and Spanish.The index for this version is: IndexA word from the editorRio de JaneiroMauritiusSt. Augustine's BayQuilimaneThe chaseMarch, 26thFriday, March 31stWednesday, April 12thSlave vesselThursday, April 13th (Holy Thursday)April, 14th (Good Friday)April, 15th (Easter Even.)April, 16th (Easter Day)Monday, April 17thTuesday, April 18thWednesday, April 19thThursday, April 20thSunday, April 23rdTuesday, April 25thWednesday, April 26thFriday, April 28thSaturday, April 29thSunday, April 30thMonday, May 1stWednesday, May 3rdThursday, May 4thFriday, May 5thSaturday, May 6thSunday, May 7thTuesday, May 9thThursday, May 11thFriday, May 12thMonday, May 15thTuesday, May 16thThursday, May 18thFriday, May 19thSaturday, May 20thSunday, May 21stWednesday, May 24thSaturday, May 27thSunday, May 28thWednesday, May 31stTuesday, June 1stFriday, June 2ndWynberg, near Cape Town, June 19thConcluding remark

Book excerpt: "The most feared ship in Britain's West Africa Squadron, His Majesty's brig Black Joke was one of a handful of ships tasked with patrolling the western coast of Africa in an effort to end hundreds of years of global slave trading. Sailing after the spectacular fall of Napoleon in France, yet before the rise of Queen Victoria's England, Black Joke was first a slaving vessel itself, and one with a lightning-fast reputation; only a lucky capture in 1827 allowed it to be repurposed by the Royal Navy to catch its former compatriots. Over the next five years, the ship's diverse crew and dedicated commanders would capture more ships and liberate more enslaved people than any other in the Squadron. Author A.E. Rooks chronicles the adventures on this ship and its crew in a narrative of the history of Britain's suppression efforts. As Britain slowly attempted to snuff out the transatlantic slave trade by way of treaty and negotiation, enforcing these policies fell to the Black Joke and those that sailed with it as they battled slavers, weather disasters, and interpersonal drama among captains and crew that reverberated across oceans. In this history of the daring feats of a single ship, the abolition of the international slave trade is revealed as an inexplicably extended exercise involving tense negotiations between many national powers, both colonizers and formerly colonized, that would stretch on for decades longer than it should have"--

Book Britain s History and Memory of Transatlantic Slavery

Download or read book Britain s History and Memory of Transatlantic Slavery written by Katie Donington and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transatlantic slavery, just like the abolition movements, affected every space and community in Britain, from Cornwall to the Clyde, from dockyard alehouses to country estates. Today, its financial, architectural and societal legacies remain, scattered across the country in museums and memorials, philanthropic institutions and civic buildings, empty spaces and unmarked graves. Just as they did in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, British people continue to make sense of this 'national sin' by looking close to home, drawing on local histories and myths to negotiate their relationship to the distant horrors of the 'Middle Passage', and the Caribbean plantation. For the first time, this collection brings together localised case studies of Britain's history and memory of its involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, and slavery. These essays, ranging in focus from eighteenth-century Liverpool to twenty-first-century rural Cambridgeshire, from racist ideologues to Methodist preachers, examine how transatlantic slavery impacted on, and continues to impact, people and places across Britain.

Book Disease  Resistance  and Lies

Download or read book Disease Resistance and Lies written by Dale T. Graden and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2014-06-09 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early nineteenth century the major economic players of the Atlantic trade lanes -- the United States, Brazil, and Cuba -- witnessed explosive commercial growth. Commodities like cotton, coffee, and sugar contributed to the fantastic wealth of an elite few and the enslavement of many. As a result of an increased population and concurrent economic expansion, the United States widened its trade relationship with Cuba and Brazil, importing half of Brazil's coffee exports and 82 percent of Cuba's total exports by 1877. Disease, Resistance, and Lies examines the impact of these burgeoning markets on the Atlantic slave trade between these countries from 1808 -- when the U.S. government outlawed American involvement in the slave trade to Cuba and Brazil -- to 1867, when slave traffic to Cuba ceased. In his comparative study, Dale Graden engages several important historiographic debates, including the extent to which U.S. merchants and capital facilitated the slave trade to Brazil and Cuba, the role of infectious disease in ending the trade to those countries, and the effect of slave revolts in helping to bring the transatlantic slave trade to an end. Graden situates the transatlantic slave trade within the expanding and rapidly changing international economy of the first half of the nineteenth century, offering a fresh analysis of the "Southern Triangle Trade" that linked Cuba, Brazil, and Africa. Disease, Resistance, and Lies challenges more conservative interpretations of the waning decades of the transatlantic slave trade by arguing that the threats of infectious disease and slave resistance both influenced policymakers to suppress slave traffic to Brazil and Cuba and also made American merchants increasingly unwilling to risk their capital in the transport of slaves.
