520    We're all familiar with the Underground Railroad and the 
       Emancipation Proclamation, but the fight against slavery 
       was not some sudden movement that sprang up in the middle 
       of the 19th century. Resistance from the enslaved started 
       on the western coast of Africa in the 15th century and 
       continued as the institution of slavery was codified in 
       America, culminating with the War between the States. This
       300-year struggle has too often been glossed over by 
       history books enamored with American ingenuity, Manifest 
       Destiny, and tales of Revolutionary freedom. But to 
       understand America-to fully understand our country today-
       one must examine the whole history of struggle, oppression,
       and resistance, not only by famous figures like Abraham 
       Lincoln and Harriet Tubman, but also by an enormous and 
       often unfamiliar cast of characters. What these disparate 
       figures had in common was they gradually coalesced into a 
       movement. Individuals gradually organized, and then the 
       abolitionist movement led to war which led, in theory, to 
       freedom. America's Long Struggle against Slavery is your 
       chance to survey the history of the American anti-slavery 
       movement, from the dawn of the transatlantic slave trade 
       during the late 15th century to the end of Reconstruction 
       in 1877 and beyond. Taught by Professor Richard Bell of 
       the University of Maryland, these 30 eye-opening lectures 
       give you an up-close view of a venal institution and the 
       people who fought against it-and who often paid for their 
       courage with their lives. As Professor Bell examines the 
       different means and methods that Americans, white and 
       black, have used to escape slavery, he presents the grand 
       problems that animated everyone engaged in this great 
       struggle.
