Step aboard a transatlantic slave ship—not as a historian, but as a person. In this immersive, second-person narrative, you’ll experience the Middle Passage not through statistics or timelines, but through breath, bone, silence, and memory. This is not a dramatization. It is a slow, haunting walk through one of history’s most brutal systems of dehumanization, told with reverence, detail, and quiet fury.
Crafted as a sleep-friendly history video with a calm, measured tone, this episode doesn’t offer comfort—but it offers perspective. We explore the human cost of the Atlantic slave trade from capture to aftermath. No romanticization. No spectacle. Just remembrance.
Thank you for watching, for listening, and most of all, for remembering.
