Slavery in England and Early Abolition Debates
The 1772 ruling declared slavery unlawful in England, yet prior years show slaves sold in the country. Birmingham ads sought a healthy “negro boy” for sale and a £382 sale at Richman is noted as possibly England’s last slave sale. References to Irish and English royalists, Cromwell, and Monmouth rebellion indicate broader slave trade involvement in 17th century Britain.

Mexican Courtship Through a Staring Bear Rite
A Mexican girl is courted by a unique method. A suitor walks the street on the opposite side and stares at her window for hours. If his appearance pleases her, she appears at the window after days of this display. The acquaintance then progresses to meeting her father and, after marriage arrangements, the suitor is introduced to her. The practice is described as preliminary tramping and staring called doing the bear.
