Description
Beginning with its introduction to the first English colonies in North America, slavery in the United States lasted as a legal institution until the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution in 1865. The author demonstrates that the Constitution was pro-slavery in its politics, its economics, and its law.
