OMG Disgruntled Haradrim s novels my UConn History Dept colleague was just a clue in Jeopardy! !!
The LARGEST number of enslaved Africans were transported to BRAZIL, nearly 6 MILLION. My book Humans in Shackles: An Atlantic History of Slavery (UChicagoPress October 2024) draws on this fact to tell the history of slavery in the Americas #slaveryarchive press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book…
