The Ship Called the Clotilda    NEW!

On the eve of the Civil War in the state of Alabama, a ship carrying over one hundred captive humans was smuggled into the United States from Africa. While slavery was still legal, the overseas slave trade had been outlawed in 1807, however, the demand for cheap labor was increasing throughout the cotton producing southern states and this drove the trade in illegal human trafficking. The remnants of the last known slave ship to bring people to the United States, the Clotilda, has been recently recovered by archaeologists.  Using archival and archaeological evidence as well as testimony from oral histories passed down from the descendants still living in the area, we can recreate the events of this period and tell the story of the last slave ship in America.
