and then of course barbados which came the poster child for sugar and slaves and for that model of exploitationhe key to that kind of an approach was simply that englishmen had no intention of staying there. he founded a horrible place to live but as long as they could import enough africans to do the work and could commandeer enough white servants to keep the africans in line, the money poured in. so there's a variety of stories you could probably pick up six or eight more colonial stories, especially in the 17th century. different variations in each case. what nets them altogether is the fact that almost nothing from the old english culture of stability was able to survive in the face of the incredible opportunities that new world put abundance presented. what they did not have come in england what they had taken advantage of was the ancient assumption that the few would own the resources and the many would shut up and do what they were told. when they got to america the resources were by definition not owned by anyone. they made it very difficult to impose the idea that they belong to the cr

early on, barbados was one of the great centers of the slave trade. jamaica would end up being one of the greatest. another for the french imperial system, in today's terms, was haiti. the crown jewel of the french system. to the caribbean, almost 5 million people were shipped. 4.2 million arrived alive. that's almost half the total. it is not an accident that this was the great center of sugar production. the sugar industry drove the slave trade for many years. it was an especially brutal regime, as you know. the second most important destination was brazil. portuguese brazil. also the home of a very lucrative plantation system. to brazil, roughly 3.5 million were loaded on the ships, and 3.2 million arrived. this was about 36% of the total, a little more than one third. overwhelmingly, the caribbean and brazil are the two most important sites for the slave trade. if you are just keeping track of the numbers i have given to you, you will see that these two areas account for the overwhelming majority of the slaves shipped to the new world. so where do

few months, you might be keen on a change of scene — so how would you fancy working remotely from barbadoshe plan will help mitigate some of the damage the virus has done to barbados's tourism industry. it's notjust tourists who are set to return to the uk. one slightly more unusual group of new arrivals is on its way too — although they won't be here for a couple of years yet. bison will be introduced to british woodland to restore an ancient habitat and its wildlife. the animals are europe's largest land mammal, and are being brought in as part of a £1 million project to try and help manage woods in kent. they're expected to be in their new home by spring 2022. you're watching bbc news. now it's time for a look at the weather with tomas shafernaker. hello. well, after a couple of overcast and rainy days, really quite disappointing forjuly, the weather is looking much better this weekend. high pressure is expected to build and, for most of us at least, it is going to be dry throughout the weekend and also pleasantly warm. you can see this high pressure building through the course of today

looks like by this weekend barbados on hurricane watch could see 65 plus-mile-per-hour.er, it is friday night through sunday that i want texas coast, louisiana to be on alert. three to five inches of rain, flooding up to eight inches. corpus christi up to galveston under tropical storm watch and new orleans has a push of water not in rain, but just in a push this weekend as well with a coastal flood advisory. michael? >> all right, ginger. thank you for that. >>> baseball is back. sports fans could not be more excited and one super fan is getting a chance and a thrill of a lifetime. dr. anthony fauci is preparing to throw out tonight's first pitch at the washington nationals home opener against the new york yankees. but this honor, it can be a little nerve-racking, so world series champion ryan zimmerman gave him a little pep talk. take a look. >> have you thrown a first pitch out before at a big league stadium? >> i have not, zim, and i'm quite nervous about it. >> don't worry. you'll be good to go. if you bounce it, there will be nobody there to boo you. you'll be good
