In this video, we begin a journey to explore the life and legacy of Cudjoe Lewis, one of the last known survivors of the Atlantic slave trade. His story is one of resilience, courage, and the enduring spirit of the African diaspora.
Creating this video has been a labor of love, requiring extensive research and the emotional toll of confronting the painful history of slavery. I want to be honest with you - the full video is not yet complete. The process of sourcing and reviewing hundreds of images related to slavery and the African diaspora has taken a significant emotional and physical toll on me.
However, I am committed to completing this project and sharing Cudjoe Lewis's story with the world. To support my ongoing efforts to bring these important stories to light, I invite you to join me on Patreon.
