I look forward to your snippets of history everyday. This one made me sick to my stomach. Such a shameful part of American history.

"Negro SALES" ?? That is horrifying.
-
You realize that slavery involved buying and selling people, right?
-
Of course.But I never saw a storefront selling Negroes. Sorry for my response of shock and horror. They don't have that store in Minnesota
-
They haven't been in Alabama or Georgia or anywhere in the USA since the Civil War but we learned about it in school.
-
I went to school, too. But I never saw a picture like that.

Douglas A. Blackmon's (2008) excellent book, "Slavery by Another Name," contains many photographs from that era and wrenching documentation.
