DESCRIPTION:The History of California Slavery by Jean Pfaelzer\n\nSlavery, observed 
 Frederick Douglass, is a “hydra-headed monster.” In California this 
 monster appeared and reappeared as if shape-shifting. The history of 
 slavery in California unsettles the North/South view of American slave 
 labor. This is a history of captivity, flight and resistance, of Indians 
 held captive at the missions, Alaska natives brought to Fort Ross in Sonoma 
 County, enslaved African Americans transported for the Gold Rush, a West 
 Coast Underground Railroad, Native Americans who were legally kidnapped and 
 forced into indentured slavery, Chinese prostitutes held in cages in SF, 
 convict laborers sold from San Quentin, and modern victims of labor and sex 
 trafficking. Jean Pfaelzer is the author of California Bound: The History 
 of Slavery in California (forthcoming 2019), and Driven Out: the Forgotten 
 War Against Chinese Americans. She’s the author of many other books, has 
 written for Huffington Post, the Globalist, curated for the Smithsonian, 
 and speaks regularly on NPR and Pacifica.\n\nSee
