I would love a mini series that would explore non western slavery but it would never happen. So many in the west think America and England invented slavery. You also have recorded interviews from the early 1900s with former slaves but I don’t think anything like that exists for slaves in Africa or any other part of the world
That's a really fascinating idea! Too bad it's probably too late to reach most of those people.
I knew a girl who was Turkish who studying in the US in college. She was PROUD of the fact that her grandfather had been a slave, because in Ottoman Turkey, many of the government officials were slaves. That's one way to keep the bureaucracy working efficiently--make them all the personal property of the Sultan!
An assassin's creed game set in that era, with a lone african MC cutting a path of devastation through those leaders would have been awesome. Sadly, ubishit wouldn't dare break their own narrative.

Great point
Or a miniseries about the heroic British navy smashing the slave trade.
Amistead has a bit of that.
That would be great and it should also include the British trying to end slavery in Africa only to have the African leaders putting up resistance

Of course not
