The last slave ship in the 1800s that tried to bring slaves into America after it was illegal to bring slaves from Africa was headed by Captain Latham. The British war ship that patrolled the illegal Atlantic Slave Trade chased and captured the ship but before they did the crew of Captain Latham tossed all the shackled slaves into the Atlantic Ocean to get rid of the evidence of transporting slaves illegally. A memorial was placed on the ocean bed for my people who were all tossed overboard holding hands in a circle. RIP to my ancestors who did not make it from Nigeria to America, I weep for you.
As an Igbo girl and my maternal home Akwa Ibom, my heart weeps and bleeds for everything my ancestors went through and for the mass suicide. May their souls rest in peace
Their soul will never rest Because we have not yet revenge our forefathers, my heart bleed 🩸 Anytime I make a research of what there did to us.... Later there brought bible to us And write ✍️ about forgiveness Let us wake up and see the truth
I can only imagine the pain and suffering those our forefathers went through😞 those people must pay! 😡 All those years of suffering! That’s why I don’t pity them when they are scammed
Jon speaking dear The high rate of yahoos in this computer era is much And if you check well They'll tell you is because of what they collected from us
This is about the most foolish and yet common reason amongst some Africans or Nigerian. First of all,not all white folks were into slave trade,some fought against it but yet you don't feel sorry for what again. It's a dumb excuse to scam someone.
This place is a historical place. It should be protected. This can be a huge economic attraction, especially for the black diaspora. And most important for our people not to ever forget.
I’m Afro-Romanian living in America now. This was very powerful. Thank you for showing me. I’m an activist and my specialty is with Race and Ethnicity. I’ve studied these things my whole life, but seeing it is a whole new level. I went to the Smithsonian museum in Washington DC, USA, and I SAW Harriet Tubman’s clothes, SAW the tools they used as well as what was used on them. I saw a portable crib for field slave moms. It was never as real for me as that moment. I’ve wanted to visit Gore and other locations. I drove by a plantation visiting relatives down the the American South, and for the first time in my life, as I live in the Northeast, I saw the sheer size of the plantation my people worked on. I personally am adopted from Romania, so technically they wouldn’t be my biological ancestors most likely, but I still consider them my ancestors. Peace and Rest in Power. PS I can’t wait for the day when black people decide to rise up and fight back! They are LITERALLY killing us! We should start killing them back. In the United States, anti-black racism is very unique compared to other countries. I believe we are headed for another American Civil War , and when it starts I’ll be ready. We need a return of the Black Panthers, an American black power group that fought back when attacked. They also created school lunch programs, voting registration help, food pantries the works.
So you are a Romanian trying to incite war🙄. The only way black people can win this race war is by loving each other and uniting. The day black men start really loving black women and children enough to want to create better, beautiful communities and countries for them to live and florish in is the day the black race will start to win. When rich black men marry black women and form powerful black families that can leverage power and influence and when black people build and develope large manufacturing, technology, medical and pharmaceutical companies as well as make more inventions, then you will see a change.
I think federal government should locate you or even ministry of education, so you can lead students of history subject in various secondary school, during excursion
I kept telling people that slavery started over 400 years ago and continued until the 1800s hundreds. So less than two hundred years ago, they shipping people to the new world. I think I heard of Igbos commiting suicide in Jamaica, but many of them survived, including a young Igbo prince. His name was Anaeso, but they changed his name to Archibald Monteith. He wrote the first slave memoir in the Americas. It's a very sad, but interesting story.
Honey slavery has been around as long as people have been around. It's gone on for millenia and is still going on . Folks enslaved others that were weak.
Wow! The slave trade story made me shed tears. It's actually sad.. it has become history.. but I cannot imagine what our forefathers suffered. God bless you for creating this video. May their Soul Rest In Peace, Amen.
Let me say you represent NIGERIA 🇳🇬 very well. Having visited twice I can't wait to experience it again soon. As an African American when I visited I felt my soul at peace like I made it back home. I visited Idanre Hill, Ikogosi Warm Springs my next visit Olumo Rock and Badagry
The people In akwa ibom and the people in abia State really have a long history together,the both tribes have known there self for long,akwa ibom is beautiful place I tell you
Thank you so much for your videos and for adding the subtitles. I used to have a hard time understanding through your heavy accent. Now I can understand perfectly. Thank you again.
Thank you very much Bro for your updating, With all the wicked these western have done to US we are still tolerating them in Our Continents. When are they going to pay the price for all these pains they have brought up on US ..????😭
A similar one is in Ghana. When I went there, my phone signaled me in less than 5mins that the temperature was too hot for my phone. 200 people were kept there for 3 months or so until the ships arrived for transportation. Those people were wicked. I guess they considered us as animals
Funny enough most of us are still behaving like animals by loving corruption so much. No be human being with brain dey support Tinubu? 🤣.my dear Africans have problem ooh
Wow.. majority of all the African American are from Nigeria, even most Liberia and Sierra Leone are Nigerian by ethnicity origin, they were the returnee from the US.
So unbelievably sad how cruel ppl r ta each otha. I cry cuz I sense da dead sadness that was left n possessed in those containers by da poor souls forced ta hell
Then it was known as Eastern region. All the South-South (Except for Edo) and South-East were considered Igbos and they all had one fate, and were treated alike in the federal government level before the disintegration which came as a plot to distort their quest for a sovereign state. The locations where slave trade thrive mostly were Cross River (which includes parts of Akwa Ibom), Imo (Which includes Abia State & parts of Rivers) then Bayelsa.
Thanks for bringing out our rich naija culture abd history this is what I call patriotic and not what the western world is projecting to us as Arica still in the stone age era if there is any noe
Thank you so much for sharing this, we love need & appreciate all that you do. It is so important to show the world how beautiful the motherland is & learn about all of the different cultures & people. #REALCOURAGE #KNOWLEDGEOFSELF
Hello my name is Kimberly from Michigan in USA. Thank You for sharing all the history and information that you are finding. It is really helping us to know our African history.❤❤❤❤
What a wicked world?. Britain why?. What a very heart rending experience our ancestors passed through?. All we need is freedom from British inhumanity.
They will not pay until Africa stands up as one Africains must unite regardless where we are because the melanins unite us,I’m black regardless where I come from
I'm from America if you want to know more about they did the slaves you need to go to ejl Legacy Museum you tell him where it began and this Museum and tell you how they were treated and it would show everything once you going this Museum you will leave all crying
And there are African Americans in America who deny African roots. They say we're not from Africa like literally not nationality wise but in general. That is sad.....
There aren't just igbo , but other ethic groups because my mom told us what are mom told her which was from this generation I am half Nigerian and half British
Why has the state government allowed these historical monuments to deteriorate so much ,that would have been contributing to their economy,i mean(Akwa Ibom state government)
Because they still answer to the British government. Why do you think they look the other way when these leaders commit atrocities instead of sanctioning them? It's because they benefit from the evil. African countries still pay homage to Britain and that's their source of wealth

You don't know is your ancestors that sold them

Slavery has been around much longer than 400 years.
Honey slavery has been around as long as people have been around. It's gone on for millenia and is still going on . Folks enslaved others that were weak.
