Gold Silver and Slaves: Britain and the Slave Trade
</div></center> This is the untold story of the greatest slaving nation in history. Up till now, Britain’s place in the history of slavery has been as the country that abolished the international slave trade.<p> Britain’s Slave Trade reveals the shameful truth behind this liberal facade, showing how the economic, social and cultural life of Britain would have been unrecognisable without slavery. Britain’s Slave Trade explains how a middling European power transformed itself into the ruler of the waves, tracing the impact this had on the British way of life and taking in the Industrial Revolution, the beginnings of Empire and the birth of modern racism along the way. It also unearths startling evidence showing how many families that think of themselves as ‘pure’ English stock are in fact descended from slave ancestors.</p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/18305652557419755386' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/18305652557419755386' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>James Barrett</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/2023/08/gold-silver-and-slaves-britain-and.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/2023/08/gold-silver-and-slaves-britain-and.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2023-08-19T10:42:00+01:00'>10:42 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/23765172/7781305976680971801' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-668788571'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=23765172&postID=7781305976680971801&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/search/label/Colonialism' rel='tag'>Colonialism</a>, <a href='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/search/label/Slavery' rel='tag'>Slavery</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> </div> <div class='blog-pager' id='blog-pager'> <span id='blog-pager-older-link'> <a class='blog-pager-older-link' href='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/search/label/Slavery?updated-max=2023-08-19T10:42:00%2B01:00&max-results=20&start=20&by-date=false' id='Blog1_blog-pager-older-link' title='Older Posts'>Older Posts</a> </span> <a class='home-link' href='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/'>Home</a> </div> <div class='clear'></div> <div class='blog-feeds'> <div class='feed-links'> Subscribe to: <a class='feed-link' href='https://soulvlog.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default' target='_blank' type='application/atom+xml'>Posts (Atom)</a> </div> </div> </div></div> </div> </div> <div class='column-left-outer'> <div class='column-left-inner'> <aside> <div class='sidebar section' id='sidebar-left-1'><div class='widget Image' data-version='1' id='Image1'> <div class='widget-content'> <img alt='' height='330' id='Image1_img' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVIvzsIs2GAf9qwxPhx9-sxPPjjqvXrjR72AhIpHixFalFIXD2CtqRqpBkiC7pzdNVMOF_3gJmBqaHh5nHNbksBN4awWl2sbXOQSTuyJBrJ-QQMV085X8_Ft3GX7PwpC7CNCx4/s330/2-14.jpeg' width='166'/> <br/> </div> <div class='clear'></div> </div><div class='widget HTML' data-version='1' id='HTML4'> <div class='widget-content'> <font size="4"> This site explores counter culture, activism, critical theory, unreasonable opinions, extreme art, noise, obscure philosophies, arcane knowledge, occult symbolism, irregular music, mediation, ecstatic attitudes, ancient wisdom and realness through the moving image. <br /><br />Curation and a desire to spread knowledge and opinions are what define the contents of this site.<br /><br /> <a href="http://about.me/James.G.Barrett">James G.
