Collingwood's Massacre

from Black and Education · host Danita Smith

In 1781 a slave ship, named the Zong (based out of Liverpool, England), was on a horrible trip to get human beings—to sell them in Jamaica. The ship made it to Africa, along the coast of present-day Ghana, and then to Sao Tome (or St. Thomas, an island near present day Gabon and Equatorial Guinea). Luke Collingwood was the captain of the ship and he decided to go with a “tight” packing method.
