Slavery was a dominant feature of the antebellum South, but it was also pervasive in the pre-Civil War North—the New England states of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island all have a history of slavery. In the early colonial period, Europeans invaded these lands and enslaved the Native people who lived there. meh, idiot.

Boston’s Faneuil Hall was a thriving market where slaves were sold. They may not have owned too many slaves in Massachusetts but they were happy to sell a whole bunch.
