International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of TAST

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

March 25th is the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. It's estimated that over 12.5 million men, women and children were forcibly transported over a period of four centuries as part of the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Those who survived the journey across the Middle Passage awaited a harsh reality of backbreaking labor in the New World.
