  • Histories of Racial Capitalism

    Histories of Racial Capitalism

    HISTORIES OF RACIAL CAPITALISM COLUMBIA STUDIES IN THE HISTORY OF U.S. CAPITALISM COLUMBIA STUDIES IN THE HISTORY OF U.S. CAPITALISM Series Editors: Devin Fergus, Louis Hyman, Bethany Moreton, and Julia Ott Capitalism has served as an engine of growth, a source of inequality, and a catalyst for conflict in American history. While remaking our material world, capitalism’s myriad forms have altered—and been shaped by—our most fundamental experiences of race, gender, sexuality, nation, and citizenship. This series takes the full measure of the complexity and significance of capitalism, placing it squarely back at the center of the American experience. By drawing insight and inspiration from a range of disciplines and alloying novel methods of social and cultural analysis with the traditions of labor and business history, our authors take history “from the bottom up” all the way to the top.

He was also the leading slave trader in the history of the United States. Over fifty years and three generations, from 1769 to 1820, James DeWolf and his extended family brought approximately 12,000 enslaved Africans across the Middle Passage, making the DeWolf1 family our nation’s most successful slave-trading family. In a notorious incident aboard the slaving ship Polly in 1789, James DeWolf ordered an enslaved woman, dead or dying of smallpox, thrown into the Atlantic Ocean. While there was an attempt later to prosecute him for this act, he was found not guilty, on the grounds that this was his duty as ship’s captain. http://www.tracingcenter.org/resources/background/james-dewolf/ Fraudulent efforts to re-enslave free persons …February, 1860, the Alabama legislature had before it a bill entitled "An Act Permitting Free Negroes to Select a Master and Become Slaves."
