Slavery and the Empire


Watch the film "Black in Latin America" and discuss the parallels between the Slavery in the British Colonies and Slavery in the Spanish Colonies.  Then compare anti slavery movements in Mexico and the United States.  Later discuss how the remnants of slavery still exist today. Finally explain some interesting aspects of music and art that was influenced by the African presence in Latin America. Post a blog about this.

Then watch the film "Africans In America: The Terrible Transformation" add notes to each of the Colonies on the topic of slavery.
