pt. 1. Green Sea of Darkness: What heart could be so hard?
Humanity is divided into two
The slaves who find the gold are all black
The Portuguese served for setting dogs to spring the game
I herded them as if they had been cattle
The best and strongest slaves available
For the love of God, give us a pair of slave women
The white men arrived in ships with wings
pt. 2. The Internationalization of the Trade: A good correspondence with the blacks
The black slave is the basis of the hacienda
He who knows how to supple the slaves will share his wealth
pt. 3. Apogee: No nation has plunged so deeply into this guilt as Great Britain
pt. 4. The Crossing: A filthy voyage
Great pleasure from our wine
A great strait for slaves
The blackest sort with short curled hair
If you want to learn how to pray, go to sea
God knows what we shall do with those that remain
pt. 5. Abolition: Above all a good soul
The loudest yelps for liberty
The gauntlet had been thrown down
Men in Africa of as fine feeling as ourselves
Why should we see Great Britain getting all the slave trade?
pt. 6. The Illegal Era: I see ... we have not yet begun the golden age
The slaver is more criminal than the assassin
Only the poor speak ill of the slave trade
Slave harbors of the nineteenth century
Sharks are the invariable outriders of all slave ships
Can we resist the torrent? I think not
They all eagerly desire it, protect it and almost sanctify it
Cuba, the forward sentinel
