Good article, thanks. Well, they have a memorial down there @ ~290 Broadway, after they dug up some former slave bones at a discontinued construction site. Maybe I can get my thread back up and running. NY State at one point was only second to the state of SC in total #s of African slaves.
No slaves, no capitalism, the latter needs chattel slaves to work, for it to work. Today they have a "nicer" term: "human trafficking"
