Elihu Yale—a name that reminds us of an Ivy League University in the US. A man who came to Madras as vice-president of the East India Company, Yale was the one who established the Corporation of Madras. But there was a dark side to Yale, the so-called philanthropist. He profited from the slave trade in Madras. He passed a rule that at least ten slaves should be on board every ship that set sail for Europe from Madras. Whipping, branding, families being torn apart, slaves being shipped off to foreign countries—people in South India were subjected to all the horrors of the slave trade, with Madras being the hub of the trade.
