This book reveals for the first time how it took critical shape at sea. Expanding the gaze even more widely, the book centers on how the oceanic transport of human cargoes - known as the infamous Middle Passage - comprised a violently regulated process foundational to the institution of bondage. Sowande' Mustakeem's groundbreaking study goes inside the Atlantic slave trade to explore the social conditions and human costs embedded in the world of maritime slavery.New Black studies series.Enslaved womenAtlantic Ocean RegionEnslaved personsHealth and hygieneAtlantic OceanEnslaved personsViolence againstAtlantic OceanSlave tradeAtlantic Ocean RegionSlave shipsAtlantic OceanEnslaved womenEnslaved personsHealth and hygieneEnslaved personsViolence againstSlave tradeSlave ships306.3620966Mustakeem Sowande' M.1978-1248416MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910151612003321Slavery at Sea2893492UNINA
