Etats-Unis : certains Etats ont continué à pratiquer l’esclavage jusqu’au 20e siècle

Une histoire incroyable. Aboli officiellement en 1863, après que Abraham Lincoln ait rendu effectif l’acte d’émancipation, l’esclavage a continué à sévir dans certaines contrées reculées des états-unis, et ce jusqu’au vingtième siècle. Ce sont les recherches conduites par la généalogiste et historienne de la famille Antoinette Harrell qui ont mis au jour ce qui semblait être un secret d’Etat soigneusement gardé. Puisque, le gouvernement fédéral, le FBI, les Présidents Calvin Coolidge et Franklin D. Roosevelt, la Cour suprême, les sheriffs locaux, et même la NAACP, étaient au courant. Pendant que l’Amérique s’affichait au reste du monde, comme le pays de la liberté, des Africains étaient encore sous le joug de certains esclavagistes dans six Etats et Comtés à travers la vallée de Mississipi, de Kosciusko à Clarksdale, jusqu’au fin fond de Money où Emmett Till fut assassiné en 1955. Pourquoi personne n’en savait rien ? La vérité sur ce scandale avait bénéficié du silence des autorités fédérales. Quant aux archives sur lesquelles s’appuient les recherches conduites par Antoinette Harell, elles croupissaient dans les greniers poussiéreux de la Cour de justice et du département national des archives à Washington. ( Pour plus d'infos lire ci-dessous la suite en Anglais).

Who Kept Slavery in America a Secret in the 20th Century?

"The Untold Story: 20th Century Slavery"


Genealogist/Family Historian Antoinette Harrell is conducting peonage research in the childhood Oprah Winfrey, where African Americans were held in slavery in the 20th Century.


New Orleans, LA (BlackNews.com) - When did slavery in America end? The American history books teach us that enslaved Blacks in the United States of America celebrated their freedom in 1863, when Abraham Lincoln freed us by enacting the Emancipation Proclamation.
But what if--just if--America's grips on slavery never loosen? What if slavery continued to be reality for African Americans in sixteen states and sixteen counties throughout Mississippi, from Kosciusko, MS the childhood hometown of Oprah Winfrey to the hometown of Morgan Freeman,
Clarksdale, MS down to the lonely roads of Money, MS where Emmett Till was murdered in 1955.

What if the same hunger for a slave economy still nourished America's soils and perverted Southern appetite as it feast along the mightiest rivers. Deep in the bowels of America's richest agricultural belt behind a million cotton bolts. Lived the 20th century masters and African Americans, who were still under the whips and flogging of the master and overseers. Still working from sun up to sun down, who dares to utter the word "slavery," yet lived its reality each and every backbreaking day.



So why don't you know anything about slavery in the 20th Century. The U.S. Government knew, the FBI knew, the NAACP knew, Governor Earl Brewer of Mississippi knew, President Calvin Coolidge, President Franklin D. Roosevelt knew, local sheriffs, elected officials knew, and the Supreme Court knew. You didn't know because the truth of this American nightmare--for those who lived it--has been buried in an unnamed darkness in dusty courthouse attics and the National Archives "Department of Justice" files in Washington, D.C.

Antoinette Harrell have dedicated the last ten years of my life exposing the truth and facts. Harrell has researched through thousands of documents housed in the National Archives and traveled throughout Mississippi, searching through criminal and civil documents as it relates to peonage "Involuntary Servitude" a condition of slavery.


Join genealogist Antoinette Harrell as she unearths peonage research documents. Hear former slave Mae Louise Miller recount her personal experience as a slave in the 20th Century during the '40s, '50s, '60s and her escape from slavery in 1963. On Saturday May 10th, a documentary will premiere entitled The Untold Story: Slavery in the 20th Century at Loyola University in New Orleans, LA, Miller Hall 114 at 6:00 p.m. Written and produced by Antoinette Harrell whose previous works on peonage were featured in People Magazine and Nightline News on "20th Century Slavery."
