Description

Ending White Slavery challenges common perceptions of racial history and the legacy of slavery. The author argues that many misconceptions about the role of white people in the transatlantic slave trade have led to misplaced guilt and misguided attempts at atonement.

The book reveals that the slave trade was not solely the result of European involvement, but also a complex web of conflicts within Africa. It also highlights the fact that only a small percentage of the white population were involved in slavery, while many whites suffered losses and disadvantages as a result of it.

By examining these alternative perspectives, Ending White Slavery aims to promote a more nuanced understanding of racial history and its ongoing impact on society today.
