A landmark history - the sweeping story of the enslavement of tens of thousands of Indians across America, from the time of the conquistadors up to the early 20th century.
Since the time of Columbus, Indian slavery was illegal in much of the American continent. Yet, as Andrés Reséndez illuminates in his myth-shattering The Other Slavery, it was practiced for centuries as an open secret. There was no abolitionist movement to protect the tens of thousands of natives who were kidnapped and enslaved by the conquistadors, then forced to descend into the “mouth of hell” of 18th-century silver mines or, later, made to serve as domestics for Mormon settlers and rich Anglos.
Reséndez builds the incisive case that it was mass slavery, more than epidemics, that decimated Indian populations across North America. New evidence, including testimonies of courageous priests, rapacious merchants, Indian captives, and Anglo colonists, sheds light too on Indian enslavement of other Indians - as what started as a European business passed into the hands of indigenous operators and spread like wildfire across vast tracts of the American Southwest.
The Other Slavery reveals nothing less than a key missing piece of American history. For over two centuries we have fought over, abolished, and tried to come to grips with African-American slavery. It is time for the West to confront an entirely separate, equally devastating enslavement we have long failed truly to see.

Im sure they will forget to mention that the American Indians had black slaves, and even enslaved other American Indian tribes they conquered. No, no one is free from having slaves, none more than the Africans, who sold their own people to the middle east for over 800 years.

I agree. Slavery only became abhorrent when it was linked to racism.
So easy to blame racism. It’s all the white mans fault. Such Drivel is even taught in school and expounded by so-called black rights martyrs.
They can’t admit that people of colour have been enslaving one another for thousands of years. Only that a white man owning a black man is wrong - hypocrites. And they call us racist!!!

Hogweed & Delf I agree with the both of you, there’s even white on white slavery and every race and peoples have had slaves at one point in time, it’s just a matter of who is the squeakiest wheel gets the oil.

Such a surprise - a book that touches upon race triggers the people who don’t actually read books.
Here they come with their trademark deluge of strawmen, non-sequiturs, incoherence and illiteracy.

@Hogweed I don’t think you did a good job of reading the synopsis. It clearly says it delves into the Native-on-Native slavery cycle. And @Delf, why do you (and people like you) keep assuming it’s some hushed secret that Black people didn’t just capture Black people to enslave but made good money selling those captured to White people. You keep beating that drum expecting a different beat, I think. If you think it’s hypocritical that White people can’t own slaves even when Black people were the ones selling them, you have more problems than just being triggered by a true history of the United States (of course, not THE true history as no single book could put everything going on into context without it being so massive as to be unwieldy).
The abomination of American slavery is in the same vein as the abomination that is the Holocaust. You could make the same argument: Jews have been massacred for two thousand years with no one getting into such a hissy-fit about it; everybody treated Jews as fair-game when it came to murder; “the Jews killed Jesus!”. But what the Nazis did went far above and beyond just simple antisemitism and became a systematic slaughter. That same kind of “industrialization” was American slavery which took a practice and made a market out of it. Slaves used to come from conquered peoples and debtors. American slaves were rounded up in Africa for the purpose of selling them into bondage. Whereas some people in history had slaves merely to own “property”, it was the American system of slavery that delegated a race of people into nothing more than chattel. The fact that you still don’t understand that says more about you than all those “hypocrites” correctly calling you racist [if you actually do believe the literal drivel that you spout].
