    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3pcKI7pgco&amp;t=735">12:15</a> A difficult but essential subject to examine honestly. Looking at the business structures behind the Atlantic slave trade reveals how deeply human suffering was tied to systems of finance, commerce, shipping, and political power. History becomes even more important when we understand not only what happened, but also the economic interests that helped sustain it.
