The recent discovery of the African Burial Ground in lower Manhattan reminded Americans that slavery in the United States was not merely a phenomenon of the antebelium South. In fact, for most of its history - fully two centuries - New York was a slave city. For a good proportion of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it was the largest slave city on the continent.
