En savoir plus sur le livre

The narrative delves into the impact of the U.S. Civil War on global sugar and cotton supplies, leading to a surge in plantation agriculture across the South Pacific. It highlights the dark practice of "blackbirding," where Melanesians and Polynesians were enslaved to meet labor demands. The book explores the involvement of U.S. citizens, including ex-slaveholders, in this trade and its connections to broader themes such as white supremacy, imperialism, and the African American experience in the Pacific. Extensive archival research reveals a complex history of race, labor, and power dynamics.
