The Arab slave trade in East Africa is one of the oldest, stretching back 700 years before the European transatlantic slave trade. Male slaves were frequently employed by their masters as servants, soldiers, or laborers, whilst female slaves, notably those from Africa, were long transported to the Middle Eastern countries and kingdoms as concubines and maids by Arab and Oriental dealers.
The Trans-Atlantic slave trade, which involved Western slave dealers, has received a lot of attention and discussion throughout the years. In contrast, the Arab slave trade has been largely overlooked, at times even viewed as a taboo subject. Despite being a crucial part of African history and having a catastrophic impact on the continent, its generations, and a people's way of life. However, both historians and experts have blurred the lines on this subject.
So, in this video, we shall expose the dark past and the forgotten Arab slave trade of East Africa. #HistoryVille #Slavery
