Dear Friends,
I have bookmarked SLAVERY LINKS:
http://www.ilhawaii.net:80/~premaq/book-01Af.html
Scroll down (about 3/4 of the way to the bottom of the page) to the section
of AFRICAN HISTORY, then scroll down some more to SLAVERY.
I am collecting bookmarks, if anyone would like to contribute.
In fact, AASG, I have bookmarked your home page.
Please advise if this is not ok.
Thank-you.
Love,
Prema = 8< D
