Part 2 of the book "Contrary Voices: Representations of West Indian Slavery, 1657-1834" is presented. It discusses the domestic manners and social condition of the white, colored and Black population in the West Indies. The author stresses that the slave trade was started by Great Britain and not the colonists. According to a woman slave interviewed by author, she felt happy when she was sold to a white man because a Black master is worst than the white.
