A black author explores Georgia's white founder and his failed attempt to ban slavery.
Black author, Michael Thurmond, examines the history of Georgia's white founder, James Edward Oglethorpe, who attempted to ban slavery in the colony he established.
Despite his efforts, historians generally agree that Oglethorpe was more focused on the safety and self-sufficiency of white settlers rather than the well-being of enslaved Africans.
However, Thurmond argues that Georgia's white founding father may have been an ally to Black people during a time when the British Empire was deeply involved in the slave trade.
