What were the experiences of those in Africa who suffered from the
practice of slavery, those who found themselves captured and sold
from person to person, those who died on the trails, those who were
forced to live in fear? And what of those Africans who profited
from the slave trade and slavery? What were their perspectives? How
do we access any of these experiences and views? This volume
explores diverse sources such as oral testimonies, possession
rituals, Arabic language sources, European missionary,
administrative and court records and African intellectual writings
to discover what they can tell us about slavery and the slave trade
in Africa. Also discussed are the methodologies that can be used to
uncover the often hidden experiences of Africans embedded in these
sources. This book will be invaluable for students and researchers
interested in the history of slavery, the slave trade and
post-slavery in Africa.
