What you'll learn:

It was always about drugs — in the 18th century, the drug was sugar. This course traces the right of privacy from the Code of Hammurabi, thru the Romans to 18th Century England where a "man’s home was his castle." Flawed defenders of liberty like John Wilkes and James Otis fought for the right. In America, emerging capitalism brought contraband — not heroin or pot but sugar! The Triangle Trade -- The Middle Passage -- Black Ivory. We have the 4th Amendment because molasses becomes rum. Rum bought African slaves. Slave exploitation and death made Caribbean sugar cane and molasses, which went to New England to become rum and back to Africa to buy slaves. For slavery, men fought, and won, a liberty.
