The term “Second Middle Passage” refers to the sale of enslaved people in the Upper South to owners in the Deep South. This term describes the internal slave trade that occurred in the United States, particularly during the 19th century, as enslaved individuals were forcibly moved from states like Virginia and Maryland to the cotton-producing states in the Deep South.
