About this programme

Andrew Jackson was an American slave trader and freebooter who became the seventh president of the United States. Jackson bought and sold slaves from 1788 until 1844, both for use as a plantation labor force and for short-term financial gain through slave arbitrage. Jackson was most active in the interregional slave trade, which he termed "the mercantile transactions", from the 1790s through the 1810s. Available evidence shows that speculator Jackson trafficked people between his hometown of Nashville, Tennessee, and the slave markets of the lower Mississippi River valley. Unlike the Founding Father presidents, Jackson inherited no slaves or lands from his parents.
