- The remote island of St Helena, a British overseas territory, is best known for Napoleon's tomb - the island's biggest tourist attraction. While overseeing the construction of a long-awaited airport on the island, Annina van Neel learns that the remains of thousands of formerly enslaved Africans have been uncovered, unearthing one of the most significant traces of the transatlantic slave trade in the world. Annina decides to advocate for this legacy, initiating a debate among the islanders - many of whom have shared ancestry with the enslaved - about how to create an appropriate memorial. Along the way, she enlists the help of African American preservationist and veteran activist Peggy King Jorde, who makes important connections in their shared history.
Buried is available with Swahili and isiZulu translated subtitles which can be applied in video settings. The synopsis is available in both languages below.
Buried: jinsi tunavyoamua kukumbuka biashara ya utumwa iliyovuka Atlantiki
Kisiwa cha mbali cha St. Helena, eneo la ng’ambo la Uingereza, linajulikana zaidi kwa kaburi la Napoleon- kivutio kikubwa zaidi cha watalii katika kisiwa hicho. Hata hivyo, huku akisimamia ujenzi wa uwanja wa ndege uliokuwa ukingojewa kwa muda mrefu katika kisiwa hicho, Annina van Neel anagundua kwamba mabaki ya miili ya maelfu ya Waafrika waliokuwa watumwa zamani yamepatikana, na kugundua mojawapo ya alama muhimu zaidi za biashara ya utumwa iliyovuka Atlantiki duniani. Annina anajaribu kuwashawishi wakazi wa kisiwa hicho (wengi wao wakiwa na mababu sawa na watumwa hao) kuheshimu urithi wao na kuunda kumbukumbu inayofaa. Hayo yakijiri, anaomba usaidizi wa mhifadhi na mwanaharakati mkongwe wa Kiafrika Peggy King Jorde, ambaye hufanya miunganisho muhimu katika historia yao iliyoshirikiwa.
Ukungcwatshwa: indlela esikhetha ukukukhumbula ngayo ukuthengiswa kwezigqila olwandle lwase-Atlantic
Isiqhingi esikude sase-St. Helena, indawo yaseBrithani yaphesheya kwezilwandle, saziwa kakhulu ngethuna likaNapoleon - eliyindawo eheha kakhulu izivakashi kulesi siqhingi. Kodwa, ngenkathi engamele ukwakhiwa kwesikhumulo sezindiza okwase kuyisikhathi eside silindelwe esiqhingini, u-Annina van Neel wezwa ukuthi kwakutholwe izinkulungwane zemizimba yabantu base-Afrika ababeyizigqila, okwembula umkhondo obaluleke kakhulu emhlabeni wokuthengiswa kwezigqila olwandle lwase-Atlantic. U-Annina uzama ukusiza abantu bakulesi siqhingi (iningi labo eliyizizukulwane zalezo zigqila) ukuba bahloniphe umlando, benze nesikhumbuzo esifanele. Kule mizamo yakhe, ucela usizo lwabalwela ukulondolozwa komlando waBantu Abamnyama BaseMelika kanye nolwesishoshovu esingumakadebona uPeggy King Jorde, ongumxhumanisi okubalulekile emlandweni wabo.

A really important film, and as this shortened version shows, an extremely moving story following Anina and her discovery of the most horrendous colonial history. The full version "A Story Of Bones" will be shown soon on stream. It was shown at Tribeca, Berlin, The Barbican,and many other venues . Thankyou Anina, and Joe and Dominic.
Remembrance, humanity, respect. Nations can have their favourite part in history but no right to erase the ones they feel ashame of. Otherwise we will never learn.
What she thought was a local struggle.....is a global one🙏🏾
It’s only for those folks not living in the present. I’m too busy enjoying this life to care about anything that happened hundreds of years ago. JEEZ!!!!!
A lot of this footage comes from A Story of Bones, a documentary by Joseph Curran and Dominic Aubrey de Vere that premiered at the Tribeca film festival (where it was nominated for Best Documentary), and was scheduled to appear in the BBC's Storyville strand before being mysteriously withdrawn. Credit where credit's due.
What award did the documentary win?
@@Biobele My mistake: it was shortlisted at Tribeca for Best Documentary.
I love St Helena but I’m an African ❤ this was a powerful Documentary love from your sister in South Africa and may we not forget our brothers who were buried in St Helena 💐
Oh i cried! This video shook my soul, through my tears I'm thankful to learn this history. ❤
This is VERY interesting. I learned a lot in this half an hour.
memorlization is so critical to the work of justice and cultural restitution - these conversations are a crucial strategy to help us deal with our past and create a more just future - bravo to the production team
wow a powerful story, thanks
This was incredible! 👏🏿😍. Asé
Excellent for documentary. Really.
Superb journalism
I can only imagine how many grave site of enslaved people have been desecrated all over the world. Records never kept or the ones kept were ignored because black Africans were and still are not considered humans worthy of acknowledgement, respect, care and compassion for the dead and the living. I'm happy that this site was discovered and re-recorded. This was very emotional for me to watch. Thank you for producing such a great documentary. ♥🥲
Africans have never bothered about their dead culturally until the west introduced memorialisation
@@redf7209really, you ever heard of mummies.
DEAR Maidens of Light And Stories of a certain past.
Your courage Is Noted.
Blessings, 💚💯🌹🌠
I feel her frustration but love her passion
You are such a brave woman Annina,I'm so proud of you❤
So many uncomfortable with the realities of colonialism.
They SIMPLY do not care...examine history.
Heartbreaking, but Support from Namibia.
wow how incredible! amazing to see what work those two will accomplish together as they are both powerful people. may the 325 find peace and the remaining thousands attain justice and peace as well. as much as it wasn't that long ago for the descendants of those buried there, it also wasn't that long for the descendants of those who caused that harm and it's a shame that we as people are still taking so long to heal these wounds. thank you for this film.
Remembering your history and honouring it should be in every part of society.
Very interesting. Thank you very much. Dr Sheila S Walker's and some of Coco Fusco's work also comes to mind here too for me.
Thank You!
Thank you.
I watched this video a couple weeks ago. I left for those two weeks and finally looked at my Y-DNA results and realized that I had matches buried in Charleston, South Carolina at the Anson Street Project.
Almost everytime there is an important fight we don't get to see it through till the end.
500 years of brutalizing and murdering hundreds of millions can never be forgotten here in Afrika
But there is an entire heritage industry in the United States that is hard at work minimizing the horror and brutality so that modern Americans can comfortably ignore its living consequences.
It goes further back than that. African tribes have been murdering and committing genocide and enslaving neighbouring tribes and villages as far back as history can show.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of those enslaved africans were Angolans. Those yellow beads look like the traditional beads of the mumuhuila tribe
Could be true considering the location too , the people were being shipped to Brazil 🇧🇷
Connecting the dots with Angola... thats why this whole thing is huge...
Is Van Neel white ?
The true Hebrews are rising repent and follow the MessYah Yahushua!
REPARATIONS is long overdue RESTORATION & RESTITUTION NOW
Geeze look at Nigerian Calabar state which still exsist in my country to this day on the plaque. Times stamp - 2;34.

Do the West Africans not think of this?shouldn’t they about this and get involved?
For some reason, they don’t understand that it was actually their ancestors who were sold into slavery.
All the African Kingdoms that sold slaves are no longer in existence. The modern nations that exist in Africa today are not even 80 years old. So, there are no nations available to pay reparations in Africa.
why do you people love to repeat white supremacists talking points, that has been debunked time and time again, nobody sold their own brothers and sisters
@contribution741 Very few sold other Africans. Lets also remember African slaves to other Africans were servants and were able to go home at the end of the day. Most Africans were kidnapped by Europeans.
We have decided not to confront our history. School systems still teach colonial mumbo jumbo.
A complete Abdication of responsibility.
Great Britain was the first civilisation in existence to end slavery. Then got others to do so. You're welcome and we should be compensated for it.
☝🏿💕🇭🇹
the guardian dont really care
How about something on the enslavement of Britons by the Romans?
Why don't you make a documentary about it?
Then use CZcams's search engine and go to that video, and stay off this one. You don't have to be here.
I don’t recall exhibitions of this history at the lootville British Museum.
This channel is interested in the history of enslaved Africans, like the majority of the world. What happened to Africans is deeply profound. Maybe make a video and teach us on the Brits and Romans. How many Britons were slaves? When and where? How were they treated? Were they forced to give birth to future slaves for hundreds of years? Branded? Lynched? I’d really like to learn more.
Commemorations of the achievements of the heroes of the white race in their homelands are also being erased. Let us not forget that. It is outrageously insulting and absurd.
where are these book burnings happening?
Heroes? How can the devil be a hero.
@@OsheyBaddest The Heroes of the White Race are: Explorers, Scientists, Writers, Politicians, Architexts, Doctors, Inventors. What "Devil" are you talking about?
You crying? Aww.. You're crying
@@OsheyBaddest ah moralism, where you refer to an ethnicity as 'the devil'
thank you fo diz, the guardian.
