The Middle Passage forced millions of African men, women, and children to migrate across the Atlantic Ocean, but did you know that there existed an even more deadly voyage for slaves?

For many Africans the journey into slavery did not end with their arrival at a Caribbean entrep\\xf4t such as Barbados or Jamaica.\\xa0

After their transatlantic journey, many captives had to embark on a second, deadlier voyage to their new homes.\\xa0

In this episode we explore this second, deadlier voyage with Gregory O\\u2019Malley, author of the new book, Final Passages: The Intercolonial Slave Trade of British America, 1619-1807.
