The story

In 1808, the United States passed an act of Congress that abolished the international slave trade, making it illegal to bring slaves across the Atlantic Ocean and back to America. However, in 1860, Timothy Meaher sailed his ship Clotilda to Africa and purchased well over one hundred slaves. On July 9, 1860, 110 African men, women, and children, survived that voyage and were dropped off at the Mobile Bay in Mobile, Alabama.
