This tale epitomizes the African American experience, reflecting the journey of countless descendants of enslaved Africans in America. Supported by historical documentation from ship manifests of The Hare, sales ledgers from a Charleston "human market," and plantation records, this story stands out as a poignant link between African Americans and their African ancestry.
Conversely, it also serves as a bridge connecting Africans to their diasporic descendants.
Joy Martin, we appreciate ALL what you do to keep this story going. You wear it all so well.
