In 1789, the horrible massacre of 142 defenseless slaves to collect insurance money was carried out by the crew of the slave ship, Zong. After the insurance company refused to pay off the claim, the case went to court. The Zong Slave Ship Massacre became a huge inspiration to the Abolitionist movement, who redoubled their efforts to end slavery.
