Requests:  0 Summary:  Fifty years after the Atlantic slave trade was outlawed, the Clotilda became the last ship in history to bring enslaved Africans to the United States. The ship was scuttled and burned on arrival to hide evidence of the crime, allowing the wealthy perpetrators to escape prosecution. Despite numerous efforts to find the sunken wreck over the next 160 years, it wasn't found until 2019. Raines, who uncovered one of our nation's most important historical artifacts, recounts the ship's perilous journey, the story of its rediscovery, and its complex legacy. Against all odds, Africatown, the Alabama community founded by the captives of the Clotilda, prospered in the Jim Crow South. Raines tells the epic tale of one community's triumphs over great adversity and a celebration of the power of human curiosity to uncover the truth about our past and heal its wounds. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.36209 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList
