Description
The Arab Muslim World's Architect of Slavery in Africa: A Historical Perspective This book sheds light on the often-overlooked role of the Arab Muslim world in the history of slavery in Africa. Contrary to popular belief, the transatlantic slave trade was not a recent phenomenon, but rather a continuation of a centuries-old practice that began long before the arrival of European colonizers. The author argues that the conversion to Islam and the subsequent conflicts it spawned had a profound impact on the continent, leading to widespread violence and genocide. The book also examines the ways in which the Arab Muslim world used Islamic ideology to justify its involvement in the slave trade, and how this legacy continues to affect the lives of people in Africa today. By exploring this complex and often painful history, the author aims to provide a more nuanced understanding of the role of the Arab Muslim world in the transatlantic slave trade. Large Print edition, 102 pages, paperback.
