In this episode, Slavery in Black and White: The Development of Race Based Slavery in the British North American Colonies. While slavery is nothing new in human history, the phenomenon of race based slavery is radical transformation from slavery as it had been practiced up to the point of the Atlantic Slave Trade. Given that the British colonizers conquered many different peoples, and had a general distain for each of their conquered subjects, how then did it come to be that Africans got tagged with slave? In this episode, we will see how and why this transformation takes place.
