The Brookes was a British slave ship. We know this because that's what it says on the poster. This is how the slaves arrived brought by the Empire. So yes, the Empire brought slavery here.

Slavery was slavery. The slaves brought to the USA - only 6% of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, BTW - were made slaves by AFRICANS and ARABS. White Europeans didn’t penetrate Africa and round up slaved. They BOUGHT them along the coast.
And I’m not sure being a slave TO BE SACRIFICED TO NATIVE GODS was better than being a slave in Georgia.
Or do you think it was?
