Their landing marked the last record of carrying Africans to the United States for the purpose of slavery. The history of AfricaTown, USA, began with Ghana, West Africa, near the present city of Tamale in 1859. The tribes (部落 ) of Africa were fighting against each other then. The Tarkbar tribe was defeated by the Dahomey tribe, and the survivors were taken to Whydah, and sold for $100 each. Then they were taken to the United States on board the schooner (縱帆船 ) named Clotilde, under the control of William Foster. He had been employed by Captain Timothy Meaher, who had built the schooner Clotilde in Mobile in 1856. In the 1850s there was much opposition to reopening the African slave trade, which had been outlawed since 1808. So Meaher and Foster secretly planned the journey of the Clotilde for the purpose of bringing an illegal cargo of slaves back to Mobile. But their plan was discovered. William Foster entered Mobile Harbor on the night of July 9, 1860. He transferred the slaves to a riverboat and hid them in the fields. He then burned the Clotilde and sank it. The African slaves were sent to those having an interest in the voyage, with 32 living in Meaher’s houses at Magazine Point, three miles north of Mobile. This formed the center of what came to be known, and still is known, as AfricaTown. AfricaTown is unique in that it represents (代表 ) a group of Africans who were forcefully removed from their homeland, sold into slavery, and then formed their own munity, all the while keeping a strong sense of African culture. This sense of culture and munity continues to be popular today, more than 150 years after the landing of the Clotilde in Mobile Bay. 32. The first people of AfricaTown came from _____. A.
