An extended and bitter indictment of Jefferson Davis and the Southern slave system.
On March 2, 1807, Congress passed the Slave Trade Abolition Act, prohibiting the import of slaves. It remained legal to own slaves throughout most of the country, however, until the close of the Civil War in 1865. During the interim, the slave trade continued to grow internally, from state to state and plantation to plantation. Many families were broken up as a result of the domestic trade, with one or more members being separated from their families and sold to another slaveholder elsewhere in the country. This map shows both the common land and water routes of the domestic slave trade.
