Slavery's History: For Kamala Harris and Ron DeSantis

A review of the biography of Mary Slessor, "Mary Slessor of Calabar" in Africa.

I read this book after reading the contrasting positions on slavery between our Vice-President, Kamala Harris, and Florida’s Governor, Ron DeSantis. The disagreement involves if American blacks—males and females, might be better off today, even after suffering the terrible indignations of slavery before the Civil War.​

​I do not like having politicians, with their political agendas, controlling my thoughts so I decided to read a book about the conditions in the major slave-trading ports of Africa in the immediate, post-Civil War timeframes from 1876 to 1915.
