CJ has started to compile all episodes of his acclaimed 2016 History of American Slavery series into collected volumes, just like he’s already done with his American Revolution & Not-So-Civil War series (and as he will soon start doing with the Woodrow Wilson series), with the episodes curated together into volumes & all announcements, ads, etc, removed.

These will be available in CJ’s Patreon shop (and in fact, the first 2 volumes are already up as of now, with the rest to follow shortly.) They can be purchased a la carte whether you’re a Patreon supporter of CJ’s work or not, but CJ’s Patreon supporters at the Scholar Warrior level ($20/month) & higher will get access to ALL volumes of this collection at no extra charge; in addition, CJ’s Patreon supporters at all levels get a discount code to save 15% on purchase of any & all items in CJ’s Patreon shop that are not already included free of charge as part of their membership benefits.

Join CJ in 2016 as he discusses:

  • Some basic introductions & things to keep in mind for this series
  • A very brief overview of the prior history of slavery in history
  • The origins of European involvement in the African slave trade, beginning with the Portuguese in the 15th and 16th Centuries
  • The beginnings of slavery in the European colonies
  • The question of the relationship between racism & slavery, and some possible sources of antiblack racism on the part of Europeans
