The Roots of Black Essence is a place where you can come to be inspired, motivated, and see what lies beneath the struggle and dedication of our heritage. We intend to show young black leaders what they are capable of by viewing black excellence in the past, present, and future.

Today we're learning about the Transatlantic Slave Trade, which brought millions of captive Africans to the Americas between the 16th and 19th centuries, with the largest number of people trafficked between 1700 and 1808. We'll look at the ships and crews that brought enslaved people across the ocean via what was known as the Middle Passage and explore the horrific conditions that these captives endured.
