Welcome to Litsy!

Blows the lid off the slave-breeding industry:
Details about the practice of breeding to increase slave "stock." 30 hours of narration on audio, 752 pages of text. The information is easy to absorb. It's well written; and facts and stats are presented in a conversational tone. It's educational but not scholarly. I borrowed the ebook from the library and will purchase the hardcover. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for book and narrator. #5stars #Pick

Robin Eller: What a voice. As I listen, I gather this project was not merely "an assignment" for her. I can sense her genuine interest in the results of the Sublettes' study. Her temperate delivery of line after line of such horrid details demonstrates a high level of professionalism. Robin's voice makes for easy and attentive listening to hard facts -- the proverbial "spoonful of sugar."

This book focuses on the monetary aspect of slavery. Families were held in jails, in chains, until market day, which was often a horrid time for mothers and children. We were "stock." "Make America great again"? When was it ever?

"There was a scene which angels witnessed; there were tears which, I believe, were bottled and placed in God‘s depository, there to be reserved until the day when He shall pour His wrath upon this guilty nation."
