The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.
Liverpool quickly became and was, at one time, the largest and most important port in the world dealing with slaves in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.
QED!
Yes, there was the Hillsborough tragedy.
And the urban decay shown in The Boys from the Blackstuff.
But never, ever, ever forget The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.
It's in the blood of many current residents of Liverpool, and in those whose ancestors left Liverpool to live nearby.
Money. Power.
