In 1492, Columbus sailed the blue ocean. He also played a central role in the European adoption of Indian or Native American slavery.

When we think of slavery in early America, we often think of the practice of African and African American slavery. However, this system of slavery was not the only system of slavery that existed in North America. Systems of Indian slavery also existed. In fact, Indians remained enslaved long after the 13th Amendment abolished African American slavery in 1865.

In this episode, Andrés Reséndez, professor of history at the University of California, Davis and author of The Other Slavery: The Uncovered Story of Indian Enslavement in Americas, takes us on an investigation into this “other form” of American slavery .
