Film and Discussion- Traces of the Trade: A Story from the Deep North

In this documentary, ten cousins discover that their New England 
ancestors were the largest slave-trading family in U.S. history and 
embark on a journey which brings them face-to-face with the history and 
legacy of New England's hidden commercial enterprise. The film traverses 
the steps of the Triangle Trade, the family's hometown of Bristol, Rhode 
Island, slave forts on the coast of Ghana, and the ruins of a family 
plantation in Cuba.
