    The slave trade from the fifteenth to nineteenth century was the largest and possibly most violent forced migration of people in recorded history. In fact, most of the information we know about it comes from letters written by slave ship captains, slave traders, or people that opposed the trade all together. We have very little firsthand accounts from actual slaves as to what life was like for them. Randy J. Sparks', "The Two Princes of Calabar," reveals a bit of this mystery by telling the tale of two Princes out of Old Calabar that were captured and forced into slavery but were able to record some of their travels and eventually find their way back to freedom. Their journey takes them from Old Calabar, to the island of Dominica, to Virginia, to England, and finally back home to Old Calabar.…

    The Atlantic slave trade (1500-1866) was an enterprise that was entirely in the hands of the Europeans. It all started with sugar. At first the Europeans did not know much about sugar, so they had to rely on other things such as fruits and honey to make their bland diets a little better. Once the Europeans found out about the Arabian’s techniques for sugar production, they established sugar-producing plantations within the Mediterranean, which would require people to work at the plantations. The absence of wage workers left…
