Themes to Focus on in the African Slave Trade with Arabs
The readings from Phillips and Gomez adequately discuss this topic. The correct pages from

Take note of the nature of the trade and the practices and conventions associated with the trade

namely, eunuchs and non-eunuchs.
Take note of the occupations in which African slaves were engaged in the Arabic world. Note
