Emerging Civil War Discussion of Slave Trading in the South During the Civil War

Emerging Civil War Podcasts includes a discussion of Chris Mackowski with Dr. Robert K. D. Colby on slave trading in the Civil War and his recent book, “Unholy Traffic.” The book looks at the impact of the outbreak of the Civil War, how the selling of human beings continued during the war, and what the motivations were for enslavers to continue to buy slaves even as the Confederacy was collapsing. A very interesting discussion from both participants.
