Moll and the Indian Slave Trade in Colonial America (18th Century)
About this episode
The episode discusses the story of Moll, an indigenous person trafficked into slavery in Colonial America and her eventual escape.
While the horrors of the Middle Passage are familiar to most, it's less well known that countless indigenous people were trafficked into slavery in the Americas. One of them was Moll, who was abducted in the Carolinas, transported to Boston, and lived for years before eventually making her escape. Become a member now at www.patreon.com/cw/PastLivesMedia.
