The document summarizes the history of slavery in the colonies from the Atlantic slave trade through its establishment and resistance. It discusses how approximately 10 million slaves were brought to the Americas over 300 years through the triangular trade route. Slavery took root in the colonies as the plantation system profited from slave labor and indentured servants were temporary. Laws were passed in the colonies in the 1600s that established slavery as a lifelong condition and restricted slaves' rights. Several slave revolts occurred, leading colonies to enact slave codes with harsher punishments and restrictions to control the enslaved population. African cultural influences persisted more on large plantations where slaves had less interaction with whites.

Understanding the Transatlantic Slave Tradebowatkin
When we discuss the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade we have to first understand that African people are the Indigenous people of North, Central & South America & have been in the U.S. at least 51,700 years. We can’t start studying our history in SLAVERY. Even when we study the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, which is important to study, we can’t start in 1619 or in the 1440s when the Portuguese get involved. We have to understand the history chronologically and deal with the 800-year occupation of the Africans known as the Moors who enter into the Iberian Peninsula, today known as Spain and Portugal, from North Africa in 711A.D.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2. The Atlantic Slave Trade
About 10,000,000
slaves were brought
to the Americas in a
300 year period from
1500-1800.
They were brought
first by Spanish and
Portuguese, then
later by the British,
Dutch, and French.
3. Triangular Trade and
the Middle Passage
Raw materials
went to Europe.
Europeans took
manufactured
goods to
Africa.
Then they
picked up
loads of slaves
for their journey
to the
Americas. This
leg is known as
the Middle
Passage.
*The three legs of the regular trade routes formed a triangle.
4. Slave Ship
“Cargo” in the
Middle Passage
“The stench of the hold while
we were on the coast was so
intolerably loathsome, that it
was dangerous to remain there
for any time, and some of us
had been permitted to stay on
the deck for the fresh air; but
now that the whole ship’s cargo
were confined together, it
became absolutely pestilential.
The closeness of the place, and
the heat of the climate, added
to the number in the ship, which
was so crowded that each had
scarcely room to turn
himself, almost suffocated us.”
Olaudah
Equiano Recalls
the Middle
Passage
1789
5. Slavery in the Colonies
Slavery had existed in
some form or fashion
even in ancient times,
usually taken by the
victors in battle or
repaying a debt.
In earlier societies,
there were often ways
for slaves to return to a
more normal life at
some point, but as
slavery took hold in the
Americas, it eventually
became a life
sentence.
6. Slavery Takes Root
Why?
The Plantation
system profited from
it.
Indentured servants
were temporary.
Conditions in
England had
improved to the
point that fewer
people would need
to be indentured
servants here.
7. Enslaved for Life (By Law)
1639-Maryland
Becoming a Christian
did not guarantee
becoming free.
1663-Virginia
Any child of a
slave was a
slave.

8. Resistance to Slavery
Several revolts broke out,
which caused
slaveholding colonies
to enact slave codes:
Restricted movement
Disallowed gun
ownership
Murderers of slaves
not charged
Made it difficult for a
slave to escape and
survive
9. African Cultural Influences

avery/experience/living/
Slave life varied because of geographic area and the size of the farm.
Generally, on a smaller farm, the owner might work alongside a slave; but
on a large plantation, slaves were not around many whites, thus keeping
their own culture intact. Slave descendants in coastal South Carolina who
speak Gullah are a good example of this. They also created beautiful crafts
and music which have lingered even today.
