Slavery
study
Continued from page 3A
“We want to find out what
really happened to Afncan
Americans and what vestiges
of slavery remaih with us
today,” said Andersdh
Thompson, director of
research for the project.
The study will address the
impact of politics, economics,
education and societal issues
on the Transatlantic slave
trade and slavery by examin
ing the institution of slavery
from 1619 to 1865, federal
and state government sup
port of slavery and discrimi
nation by law in the public
and private sectors against
free Africans.
The study will explore how
slavery functioned, its linger
ing effects, as well as the sys
tem and process of the cap
ture, procurement and treat;
ment of enslaved Africans,
Thompson said.
The commission will be dis
solved after it reports its find
ings to the General Assembly
in the spring.
State Senator Donne
Trotter said six months may
not be enough time for
researchers to complete the
study.
‘The resolution is not set in
stone. We can extend it,”
Trotter said.
Conrad Worrill, national
chairman of the National
Black United Front and
director of the Center for
Inner City Studies, said he
expects the study wiU show
that black Americans are suf
fering a form of post-traiunat-
ic stress syndrome as a result
of the slave trade.
The negative effects of slav
ery are still felt by AfHcan-
Americans who are economi
cally and socially disadvan
taged and are discriminated
against continually by
unequal access to education
and health care, said State
Senator Mattie Hunter, sen
ate sponsor of the resolution.
Rep. Eddie Washington was
the House sponsor.
