Postal Service Shaun and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Victor Zanders Richards were able to take down a drug smuggling opera- tion that was based in Jacksonville. Even though the operation was headquartered in Jacksonville, it reached from Mexico,California and across the country and sold in northeast Florida. The drug bust was called, Operation Dot Com but had nothing to do with the Internet. It was understood that it was named after its leader’s nickname-Dot. The leader was George Wazirim who is 29 years of age. They received a break in the operation with a traffic stop of the ringleader and found at that time, $72,000 in a hidden compartment of his vehicle. The drugs were smuggled in hidden panels of cars and in shipments through the U. S. Postal Service as well as private delivery services.

THE ATLANTIC MIND: ZEPHANIAH KINGSLEY, SLAVERY, AND THE POLITICS OF RACE IN THE ATLANTIC WORLD by MARK J. FLESZAR Under the Direction of Dr. Jared Poley and Dr. H. Robert Baker ABSTRACT Enlightenment philosophers had long feared the effects of crisscrossing boundaries, both real and imagined. Such fears were based on what they considered a brutal ocean space frequented by protean shape-shifters with a dogma of ruthless exploitation and profit. This intellectual study outlines the formation and fragmentation of a fluctuating worldview as experienced through the circum-Atlantic life and travels of merchant, slaveowner, and slave trader Zephaniah Kingsley during the Era of Revolution. It argues that the process began from experiencing the costs of loyalty to the idea of the British Crown and was tempered by the pervasiveness of violence, mobility, anxiety, and adaptation found in the booming Atlantic markets of the Caribbean during the Haitian Revolution.

  • Investigating a Tabby Slave Cabin- Teacher Instructions
    Project Archaeology: Investigating Shelter Series # 12 Investigating a Tabby Slave Cabin Investigating a Tabby Slave Cabin Instructions for the Teacher Written by Pam James, NPS Teacher-Ranger-Teacher Mary Mott, NPS Teacher-Ranger-Teacher Dawn Baker, NPS Teacher-Ranger-Teacher With Contributions from National Park Service – Kingsley Plantation Amber Grafft-Weiss and Sarah Miller – Florida Public Archaeology Network Dr. James Davidson – University of Florida 1 | Page Investigating a Slave Cabin Background Information In order to understand the history of the United States of America it is important to understand the period of time when slavery existed. Slavery was filled with incidents of brutality, punctuated here and there by moments when individuals reached across the barriers of race, gender and class to be decent to each other. Kingsley Plantation offers the opportunity to encounter this doubled-faced reality in the complex lives of Anta Majigeen Ndiaye (Anna Kingsley) and Zephaniah Kingsley. During Florida’s colonial plantation period (1763-1865), Fort George Island was owned by many planters. The site name comes from one of those owners, Zephaniah Kingsley. In 1814, Kingsley moved to Fort George Island with his wife and three children (a fourth child would be born at this plantation). His wife, Anta Majigeen Ndiaye, was from Senegal, Africa and was purchased by Kingsley as a slave in 1806. She actively participated in plantation management, acquiring her own land and slaves when she was freed by Kingsley in 1811. This account reveals an often hidden fact that some slave owners married their slaves, and that some former slaves in America went on to own slaves.
