‘These connections are overlooked’: how British companies profited from slavery in Brazil long after abolition Britons learn about the country’s involvement ‘almost as a self-congratulatory narrative’, says historian Joseph Mulhern theguardian.com/world/2026/mar…

Many thanks! Being able to maintain a link to the excellent research community at @durham_uni was so important as my career took a different path. Hoping to get back sooner rather than later to discuss the book and catch up with old friends!

As someone no longer in full-time research, I wasn't sure I'd get this over the line, but here it is! This is my modest effort to (re)write Brazil into the history of Britain's involvement with transatlantic slavery. Too many people to thank here but you know who you are!

Just released! Looks beyond the British Empire and the Slavery Abolition Act to focus on Brazil as the final frontier of Britain’s centuries-long involvement with transatlantic slavery. See here ➡️ tinyurl.com/3d6d37wy @joemmulhern @durham_uni #HistoryOfSlavery #AnthemPress

@Gabeyoncee Unfortunately it is not the easiest book to get a hold of. I managed to consult a copy through an interlibrary loan from a university library here in the UK

@Gabeyoncee I have not seen the original, but a version of Joseph Moore's diary was published as J.W. Moore, The Revolution of 1831 with notes by J.M Harvey (São Paulo: Sociedade Brasileira de Cultura Inglesa, 1962).

@mbarcia24 @M_H_Taylor Thanks Manuel! It's getting there. The book has a new chapter on the ST: "Advocates and Supporters": British Merchants and the Slave Trade to Brazil.

An absolutely scathing assessment of the Royal Navy's prosecution of the Brazilian slave trade in the late 1830s by ... an officer of the Royal Navy.

My first and very minor foray into digital humanities is this dataset and accompanying article in the Journal of Slavery and Data Preservation. This issue has some great resources for research and teaching on Brazilian slavery! @EnslavedOrg jsdp.enslaved.org/fullDataArticl…

O episódio 4 de Cotton Capital enfoca a escravidão no Brasil. @JoeMMulhern contribui para o debate sobre o papel dos comerciantes britânicos como fornecedores do tráfico de escravos e como proprietários de escravos no Brasil, muito além de 1807 ou 1833. theguardian.com/news/audio/202…

@JoeMMulhern Wow that’s fascinating, thank you for sharing. I think the wharf was on the eastern edge here. Where the boats are situated on my 2nd pic. It became Hawthorn Leslie.

@neheritagelib Very interesting! There's an unexpected, albeit short-lived, connection between St. Peter's and a slave-worked gold mine in Brazil (see 🧵). Trying to work out where that property would have been on your map! twitter.com/JoeMMulhern/st…
Joseph Mulhern@JoeMMulhern

After today's walk down the banks of the Tyne, a thread on the connection between this stretch of Newcastle's riverside, St. Peter's, and slavery in the gold mines of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Though now calm spot, this is a story of the Coaly Tyne of the 1860s...

This is an excellent map of the area in the 1850s, illustrating the site of a few of Byker's shipyards. I've taken liberty to annotate where they would be today, as well as the area once the shipyards were lifted by the 1890s.

My big interest in Newcastle's history is Byker. Shipbuilding is probably a lesser known feature of its heritage. There was a couple yards at St Peter's, namely Smith's and Cunningham's. Blenheim was probably the biggest produced here, for the East India route seen below.
