Deleware to be exact.
These stupid simple ass GMO watermelon eating, Rex 84 victim ass nikkas infuriate me to no end. I overheard some dumb ass blockheaded negro say to another, after some vagabond called him "******" on the street in 14th street manhattan, nyc: "I wouldn't think something like that would happen HERE. Like, for real? New York? C'mon yo" ....
Well, eat your heart out, wicked nikka:

In 1711,
New York was growing quickly, and the growing needs of the city were often
supplied by slave labor. Nearly 1,000 out of about 6,400 New Yorkers were black, and at least
40 percent of the white households included a slave. In these homes,
enslaved workers cooked, washed, sewed, hauled water, emptied the chamber pots, swept out the fireplaces and the chimneys, and cared for the children. Along the East River they built, loaded, and unloaded, the ships. They cleared the land uptown, and then planted and harvested the crops. And up and down the narrow streets they
pedaled their master’s goods and even supplied the city’s first fast foods—fresh oysters and steaming hot corn on the cob.
As
the number of slaves imported into the city soared, barrel makers, butchers, carpenters, blacksmiths, and tin workers began to purchase young enslaved men in order to teach them their trades. Typically, when a slave owner ran out of work, they hired their slaves out at half the rate of free labor.
Often the slaves themselves were sent out to find work. In a time when fear of a slave uprising was ever-present, the sight of so many enslaved men walking the streets looking to be hired caused alarm. Fearful white citizens began to complain.
They demanded a market where slaves could be hired, bought, and sold. Finally, on December 13, 1711, the City Council passed a law “that
all Negro and Indian slaves that are let out to hire…be hired at the Market house at the
Wall Street Slip…” This market, known as the Meal Market (because grains were sold there), was located at the foot of
Wall Street on the East River. It was the city’s first slave market.
