Summary "The Slave Trade: Slavery and Color" by Theodore D. Jervey is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work examines the complexities of slavery and race relations in the United States, particularly focusing on the evolving views of slavery and the impact of legislative decisions on the status of African Americans. It addresses the socio-political context of slavery, the implications of race, and the shifting sentiments around the 19th century in America. The opening of the book introduces the central themes by reflecting on the broader implications of the "Negro Question." It discusses the historical evolution of race relations, from colonial attitudes toward slavery to the debates during the drafting of the Constitution. Jervey highlights key figures and legislative discussions that grappled with the status of African Americans and the moral considerations surrounding slavery. By establishing these foundational elements, the author sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the socio-political ramifications resulting from these historical decisions as they relate to both white and black populations in America.
