Britain Used India To Replace Slave Labor

The British parliament abolished slavery in 1833, freeing 800,000 enslaved Africans in the Caribbean and South Africa. Almost immedately, Britain  replaced their forced labor on its plantations with indentured labor from India, creating the world’s largest diaspora. An Al Jazeera English video by Zahra Haider.
