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. 410 0$aNew approaches to the Americas. 606 $aSlavery$zBrazil$xHistory 606 $aSlavery$zCuba$xHistory 606 $aSlavery$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory. 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory. 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory. 676 $a306.3/62097 700 $aBergad$b Laird W.$f1948-$01664163 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824267803321 996 $aThe comparative histories of slavery in Brazil, Cuba, and the United States$94022035 997 $aUNINA
