Text Any textual data included in the document Remembering Clotilda During Black History Month, Americans should take time to reflect on the 1860 voyage of the schooner Clotilda from Mobile to Africa and back -- the last documented slaving voyage in U.S. history. This human rights abuse was a capital crime under the law, but no one was ever punished for it. Nor was any restitution ever made to the 110 Africans brought by force to American shores on the eve of the Civil War. They dreamed of returning to Africa, but could never do so. Many now lie buried at Old Plateau Cemetery on the edge of Mobile. (Traditionally, the Clotilda voyage was placed in 1859 and the ship identified as Clotilde, but recent research has shifted scholarly opinion.)
