America should be proud of role in abolishing Transatlantic slave trade

Heritage Senior Advisor and Research Fellow Allen Mendenhall has urged Americans to be proud of their country’s role in abolishing the Transatlantic slave trade. “If you think that either slavery or the abuses under the civil rights movement are the only story America has to tell, of course you’re going to come away with a very negative history,” Mr Mendenhall told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. “America has a wonderful history and, in particular in this area of slavery, I think America has a lot to be proud of. The West did not invent slavery, but it played a leading role in abolishing the Transatlantic slave trade and promoting worldwide abolition. “That was really Britain and America leading the way there.”
