The Intra American Slave Trade Database

The Intra-American Slave Trade Database is a research tool that documents more than 28,000 trading voyages that forcibly moved hundreds of thousands of enslaved people between locations in the Americas. The database spans the hemisphere, including journeys as far north as Newfoundland and as far south as Argentina. Many of the people trafficked were African-born individuals in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, most of whom were recent survivors of the infamous Middle Passage across the Atlantic, forced to endure subsequent journeys in the Americas. Other captives in traffic, especially in the nineteenth century, were American-born individuals, uprooted from the families and communities they built under slavery as traders moved them to different American regions as slavery evolved and expanded. The project was cofounded by historians Gregory E. O’Malley (UCSC) and Alex Borucki (UCI), and the database is freely available to researchers and the general either online or as a downloadable spreadsheet. To enhance accessibility, the website is available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. video credit: Jaxon Chester, UCSC Film & Digital Media and Global Economics '24
