El legado de la esclavitud (Ensayo)

by Clint Smith, Julia Gómez Sáez (Translator)

Comenzando en su ciudad natal de Nueva Orleans, Clint Smith nos guía en un inolvidable recorrido por monumentos y lugares emblemáticos que

ofrecen una historia intergeneracional de cómo la esclavitud ha sido fundamental para dar forma a la historia colectiva de Estados Unidos y sus habitantes.

La historia de la plantación de Monticello, en Virginia, la finca donde Thomas Jefferson escribió cartas en las que defendía la urgente necesidad de libertad mientras esclavizaba a más de cuatrocientas personas. La historia de la Plantación Whitney, una de las únicas antiguas plantaciones dedicadas a preservar la experiencia de las personas esclavizadas cuyas vidas y trabajo la sustentaron.


Una investigación profunda y una exploración conmovedora del legado de la esclavitud y su huella en siglos de historia de Estados Unidos.
