Description:
What is slavery? It seems a simple enough question. Despite the long history of the institution and its widespread use around the globe, many people still largely associate slavery, outside of the biblical references in the Old Testament, to the enslavement of Africans in America, particularly the United States. Slavery proved to be essential to the creation of the young nation™s agricultural and industrial economies and profoundly shaped its political and cultural landscapes, even until today.What Is Slavery? focuses on the experience of enslaved black people in the United States from its early colonial period to the dawn of that destructive war that was as much about slavery as anything else. The book begins with a survey of slavery across time and place, from the ancient world to the beginning of the Atlantic slave trade and then describes the commerce in black laborers that ushered in market globalization and brought more than 12 million Africans to the Americas, before finally examining slavery in law and practice. For those who are looking for a concise and comprehensive treatment of such topics as slave labor, culture, resistance, family and gender relations, the domestic slave trade, the regionalization of the institution in the expanding southern and southwestern frontiers, and escalating abolitionist and proslavery advocacies, this book will be essential reading.

Bottom screw will rust and permanently stain counter
Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel, Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel
Besides the ungalvanized or stainless steel bottom screw that rusts at the first sign of moisture this product has held up incredibly well. I've used the product for 3 years and that is the only problem. I'm probably going to get a deduction in my security deposit for the rust stains that have permeated the countertop. The rest of the product is really well made and holds up well

Crafting Convenience: Sturdy and Stylish One-Handed Towel Holder for Creative Spaces
Color: Black, Material Type: Stainless Steel
Thisit has become a great addition to my craft area. The struggle to find a convenient place for paper towels is real, especially when crafting can get a bit messy. Prior attempts with a magnetic holder fell short, as it couldn't support the weight of a full paper towel roll. The promise of a one-handed dispensing solution was intriguing and seemed like the perfect fit for my needs.
While I can't unequivocally say this holder allows for flawless one-handed dispensing – it seems the success of that feature might depend on the angle at which the towel is torn – it's still a significant upgrade from my previous setup. The sturdy stand ensures the towels are always within reach, without the risk of the holder tipping over or the roll coming loose.
Apart from its functionality, the aesthetic aspect of this towel holder is a notable advantage. Its minimalist design doesn't just save space; it also contributes to the overall look and feel of my crafting space. The wrought iron style is a perfect match with my other accessories, creating a cohesive and stylish environment.
In conclusion, this towel holder is more than just a functional tool; it's a stylish addition that enhances the convenience and appearance of my crafting area. Its sturdy build, practical design, and complementary style make it a winner in my book.
