The Clarkson challenge … During a parliamentary investigation a witness for the slave trade described how ‘delightful’ the slave ships were, Robert Norris stated ‘[The slaves] had sufficient room, sufficient air, and sufficient provisions. When upon deck, they made merry and amused themselves with dancing… In short, the voyage from Africa to the West Indies was one of the happiest periods of a Negro’s life.’ BIG QUESTION Was the Middle Passage really one of the ‘happiest periods’ of an African’s life?
