Book Synopsis Slavery by Another Name by : Douglas A. Blackmon
Download or read book Slavery by Another Name written by Douglas A. Blackmon and published by Icon Books. This book was released on 2012-10-04 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pulitzer Prize-winning history of the mistreatment of black Americans. In this 'precise and eloquent work' - as described in its Pulitzer Prize citation - Douglas A. Blackmon brings to light one of the most shameful chapters in American history - an 'Age of Neoslavery' that thrived in the aftermath of the Civil War through the dawn of World War II. Using a vast record of original documents and personal narratives, Blackmon unearths the lost stories of slaves and their descendants who journeyed into freedom after the Emancipation Proclamation and then back into the shadow of involuntary servitude thereafter. By turns moving, sobering and shocking, this unprecedented account reveals these stories, the companies that profited the most from neoslavery, and the insidious legacy of racism that reverberates today.

Book Synopsis Trafficking in Slavery’s Wake by : Benjamin N. Lawrance
Download or read book Trafficking in Slavery’s Wake written by Benjamin N. Lawrance and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women and children have been bartered, pawned, bought, and sold within and beyond Africa for longer than records have existed. This important collection examines the ways trafficking in women and children has changed from the aftermath of the “end of slavery” in Africa from the late nineteenth century to the present. The formal abolition of the slave trade and slavery did not end the demand for servile women and children. Contemporary forms of human trafficking are deeply interwoven with their historical precursors, and scholars and activists need to be informed about the long history of trafficking in order to better assess and confront its contemporary forms. This book brings together the perspectives of leading scholars, activists, and other experts, creating a conversation that is essential for understanding the complexity of human trafficking in Africa. Human trafficking is rapidly emerging as a core human rights issue for the twenty-first century. Trafficking in Slavery’s Wake is excellent reading for the researching, combating, and prosecuting of trafficking in women and children.

Roberts, Marie Rodet, Jody Sarich, and Jelmer Vos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ... THE RESULT OF OUR PRESENT DEVOURING POLITICS. I am sorry to have to uncover the answer to the above topic, inasmuch as I had rather tell you that your loved ones were killed than to let you know the real conditions invading your home, devouring your boys and girls inch by inch in the most shameful and disgraceful manner that human beings can stoop to, in consequence of our present politics. Please bear with me if my remarks should come home to you all. I am not writing calamity nor for notoriety, but when I am licked I am just American man enough to admit it and acknowledge that I can make a mistake--and learn by my errors. I assure you that it feels different when the burglar calls at your own house. When I had my pocket picked a short time ago by a politician who holds a fine job in our present system, it felt a great deal different to me than when I read that some one else's pocket has been picked. Never has history recorded any grander or more noble constitution, nor any greater men and women than those who raised the Stars and Stripes in New England, nor a more just cause. We are proud indeed of our forefathers and mothers who established our great Republic by the sweat of their brow, staining the red stripes with their own blood, the blue signifying true motherhood, and the white being the emblem of our pure, innocent children. Just think, if the flag should arise from every political office with the names written on it of those who have been untrue and are robbing it of the glory, freedom and power that it represents, mighty few would stand the pressure, but their family physicians would advise them to take a trip to Europe for their health. The soft winds blowing and waving the flag would very likely howl and moan and say, "For...

Book Synopsis The End of Slavery in Africa by : Suzanne Miers
Download or read book The End of Slavery in Africa written by Suzanne Miers and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive assessment of the end of slavery in Africa. Editors Suzanne Miers and Richard Roberts, with the distinguished contributors to the volume, establish an agenda for the social history of the early colonial period--hen the end of slavery was one of the most significant historical and cultural processes. The End of Slavery in Africa is a sequel to Slavery in Africa, edited by Suzanne Miers and Igor Kopytoff and published by the University of Wisconsin Press in 1977. The contributors explore the historical experiences of slaves, masters, and colonials as they all confronted the end of slavery in fifteen sub-Saharan African societies. The essays demonstrate that it is impossible to generalize about whether the end of slavery was a relatively mild and nondisruptive process or whether it marked a significant change in the social and economic organization of a given society. There was no common pattern and no uniform consequence of the end of slavery. The results of this wide-ranging inquiry will be of lasting value to Africanists and a variety of social and economic historians.

Download or read book AI Narratives written by Stephen Cave and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-02-28 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to examine the history of imaginative thinking about intelligent machines. As real Artificial Intelligence (AI) begins to touch on all aspects of our lives, this long narrative history shapes how the technology is developed, deployed and regulated. It is therefore a crucial social and ethical issue. Part I of this book provides a historical overview from ancient Greece to the start of modernity. These chapters explore the revealing pre-history of key concerns of contemporary AI discourse, from the nature of mind and creativity to issues of power and rights, from the tension between fascination and ambivalence to investigations into artificial voices and technophobia. Part II focuses on the twentieth and twenty-first-centuries in which a greater density of narratives emerge alongside rapid developments in AI technology. These chapters reveal not only how AI narratives have consistently been entangled with the emergence of real robotics and AI, but also how they offer a rich source of insight into how we might live with these revolutionary machines. Through their close textual engagements, these chapters explore the relationship between imaginative narratives and contemporary debates about AI's social, ethical and philosophical consequences, including questions of dehumanization, automation, anthropomorphisation, cybernetics, cyberpunk, immortality, slavery, and governance. The contributions, from leading humanities and social science scholars, show that narratives about AI offer a crucial epistemic site for exploring contemporary debates about these powerful new technologies.
