  1. The purpose of my above post was to show that many more Africans were taken to the Carribbean as slaves rather than to North America, according to the Eltis and Richardson maps 147 and 137 above. Whether the Carribbean was just an intermediary stop, with final destination North America, many historians say no. Table 7 above shows Rio de Janeiro and Salvador de Bahia in South America as places where most slaves were taken. So Blacks presence in North America should always be read in that context. And what are American Blacks doing to lessen the Hispanic racism in South America. Buy only hardback cover of this book, it lasts longer. Pay no more than $60.00. Appendix 18 above from the "Dutch Slave Trade " book by Postma above, gives an indication of the number of deaths to Africans before, during the slave trade captivity journey. Below is two partial articles of five pages from 'Race Discourse' book mentioned above.
