Story
On August 4, 1972, Idi Amin ordered the expulsion of over 80,000 Ugandan Asians from the country. A brave few stayed, but most left to Asia or Europe. Stripped of everything, my family chose to start over in Britain. Our story is just one of tens of thousands. I lived history. Though others may tell it differently, this is my experience. My family and I built ourselves from the ground up, standing strong against an endless wave of racism that sought to keep us in our place. To be able to simply walk down the street in peace once seemed impossible.

Story
Wussten Sie, dass Miguel de Cervantes fünf Jahre lang als Sklave in Nordafrika vegetierte, bevor er seinen weltberühmten Romanhelden Don Quijote gegen Windmühlen kämpfen ließ? Dass er nur einer von rund 3,7 Millionen Europäern war, die in der Neuzeit, also seit 1500, versklavt wurden? Dass weite Küstenabschnitte in Italien menschenleer waren, weil die Bewohner aus Angst vor den Sklavenjägern ihre Dörfer am Meer verließen? Das millionenfache Leid der "weißen Sklaven" – den Begriff prägte der US-Senator und Anti-Sklaverei-Kämpfer Charles Sumner 1847 – ist heute weitgehend vergessen.

Story
When Ghana achieved independence from Britain in 1957, it instantly became a target for home-grown opportunists and rapacious Western interests determined to claim whatever assets colonialism hadn’t already stripped. A CIA-funded military junta ousted the new nation’s inspiring president, Kwame Nkrumah, then falsely accused him of hiding the country’s gold overseas. Into this big lie stepped one of history’s most charismatic scammers, a con man to rival the trickster god Anansi.

Story
El término «moro» es un nombre más histórico que étnico. Es una invención de los cristianos europeos para referirse a los habitantes islámicos del Magreb (norte de África), Andalucía (España), Sicilia y Malta, y a veces se usaba para designar a todos los musulmanes.

Story
Amidst bloody battles and political maneuvering, thousands of African Americans spent the Civil War trying to hold their families together. This moving book illuminates that struggle through the letters they exchanged. Despite harsh laws against literacy and brutal practices that broke apart Black families, people found ways to write to each other against all odds. In this book, listeners will meet parents who are losing hope of ever seeing their children again and a husband who walks fifteen miles to visit his wife, enslaved on a different plantation.
