About a mile from the Mart, hundreds of thousands of abducted Africans disembarked before the federal government in 1808 outlawed the import of bonded humans. Domestic slavery continued until Emancipation in 1862, during the Civil War.
On the second floor of the Mart is the exhibit “The Long March.” Arab enslavement of Black Africans is in the second panel from the left.
