Brazil and Cuba were among the first colonial societies to establish slavery in the early sixteenth century. Approximately a century later British colonial Virginia was founded, and slavery became an integral part of local culture and society. In all three nations, slavery spread to nearly every region, and in many areas it was the principal labor system utilized by rural and urban elites. Yet long after it had been abolished elsewhere in the Americas, slavery stubbornly persisted in the three nations. It took a destructive Civil War in the United States to bring an end to racial slavery in the southern states in 1865. In 1866 slavery was officially ended in Cuba, and in 1888 Brazil finally abolished this dreadful institution, and legalized slavery in the Americas came to an end.New approaches to the Americas.The Comparative Histories of Slavery in Brazil, Cuba, & the United StatesSlaveryBrazilHistorySlaveryCubaHistorySlaveryUnited StatesHistorySlaveryAmericaHistoryCross-cultural studiesSlaveryHistory.SlaveryHistory.SlaveryHistory.SlaveryHistory306.3/62097Bergad Laird W.1948-887178UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910457829503321The comparative histories of slavery in Brazil, Cuba, and the United States1981942UNINA
