Chapter 14 (Part 2)

This part of the chapter was very descriptive on the slave trade. This is a very touchy and controversial topic in my opinion just because it has to deal with race. It seems that we always touch on this topic every once in a while throughout our educational careers. The slave trade stimulated much of the Americas and was an enormous extension of business and commerce throughout the world during this time. This practice is not new in fact in some parts of the world it is still being used to this day. The practice of slavery dates back many years ago and was a very widespread human practice. Of course, there are always two sides to slavery and that is the good and the bad.
