Barbados 1661: The Slave Code Behind Washington Black
Barbados didn't just grow sugar; it wrote the 1661 Slave Code-- a legal architecture that turned people into home and shaped slavery throughout the Atlantic. Our brand-new feature pairs a short trailer with clear context: sugar-financed empire, law-enforced the chains, and Barbados became Britain's very first slave society. We bridge the world of Washington Black to the historical Barbados you can still walk today-- windmills, boiling houses, and towns tracing old estate lines. We likewise keep in mind Halifax links and daily "rogues" whose humour and resourcefulness refused to disappear. Start with the trailer, continue with the recommendations.
