So what if I were to tell you that some of those insurance companies that paid out for these supposedly “lost” Africans are the same companies you have car insurance with today? These same companies that made their first dollars off of this rather shady practice are some of the very same insurance companies and banks you do business with today? Would that bother you? -When thinking about what you have been taught in previous classes, does it in any way match what these readings and videos on slavery and race have revealed to you?
