Slavery is one of the most essentials events that happened in the US history. Around early 1600’s the first African slaves were brought to North America. some historians have estimated that 6 to 7 million slaves were imported to the New World during the 18th century alone, depriving the African continent of some of its healthiest and ablest men and women. Slavery has been going on for years. However, in 1865 slavery was finally over in the USA. I have picked this topic because it was one of the most mentioned topic in my class and it was a big deal back at the time in the US history. I found this website talks about a brief history of slavery around the Civil War Trust.
