Enslaved: The Lost History of the Transatlantic Slave Trade

"Rationalization"

Synopsis:

Featuring Samuel L. Jackson, Enslaved documents 400 years of human trafficking. Over 12 million Africans were sold into slavery. 2 million died en route. Enslaved tracks DWP, a collaborating organization of the National Association of Black Scuba Divers, as they locate sunken slave ships. These efforts serve as springboards telling the lost history of the transatlantic slave trade.
