What happened to the ships that carried human cargo across the Atlantic to a life of harsh and grueling servitude?
Many descendants of slaves in America wonder about this. Who owned these seafaring vessels; were they used for more than transporters of slavery? Most curiously, what was their demise.
Much has been said, written and discussed regarding slavery but little is known about the very journey or history about the life aboard these vessels. There are books and mention of one infamous ship. The “Amistad”, is famous because of the slave mutiny.
