Recaptured Africans: Surviving Slave Ships, Detention, and Dislocation in the Final Years of the Slave Trade

Recaptured Africans: Surviving Slave Ships, Detention, and Dislocation in the Final Years of the Slave Trade In the years just before the Civil War, during the most intensive phase of American slave-trade suppression, the US Navy seized roughly 2,000 enslaved Africans from illegal slave ships and brought them into temporary camps at Key West and Charleston. In this study, Sharla Fett reconstructs the social world of these â€orecaptivesâ€? and recounts the relationships they built to survive. Autor: Sharla M.
