1. A Day In The Life Of A Slave On An African Slave Ship | A Day In History

The TransAtlantic Slave Trade is one of the most horrific and shameful parts of human history. From 1525 to 1866, an estimated 2.5 million African people were forcibly taken from their homes and shipped halfway across the world to endure lives of brutality and abuse as slaves in the New World.Before they even reached the New World, however, 1 in 5 died because of the horrific conditions aboard the ships that took them across the ocean.We couldn't possibly sum up the tragedy of the TransAtlantic Slave Trade in one video, and it would be insulting to try, but today we're going to take a little look at life aboard one of these slave ships and the horrifying truth of what innocent African people endured because of the slave trade.Follow the show & turn on notifications to never miss an episode! 💽Rate us 5 stars on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 🎧Watch Video Episodes on YouTube: https://linktr.ee/adayinhistory#history #transatlanticslavetrade #africanslaveship #slaveryhistory #slavetrade #themiddlepassage #africanamericanScriptwriter: Natasha Martellhttps://7strangethings.com/Voiceover Artist: Chris RedishDISCLAIMER: All materials in these videos are used for entertainment purposes and fall within the guidelines of fair use.
