DESCRIPTION:What if we begin modern French history in 1659\, when France e
 stablished a foothold in West Africa to enter the slave trade rather than 
 in the conventional revolutionary year of 1789? This paper focuses on work
 ing households in western Brittany where enslaved (mostly male) teenagers 
 were placed\, in theory to be educated as Catholics and trained in a trade
 \, to explore the daily racial dynamics of the emergence of a multi-racial
  population in France.
