- This very a disturbing tour of the abandoned Slave castle in Sierra Leone. Which was a pivotal part of the West African Transatlantic slave trade.
This was the second part of two videos where I visited the Bunce Island Slave case in Sierra Leone. It was heavy but really insightful.

Omg 😱 you did extremely well to hold it together. I thought I was brave, until I visited or confronted our historical past in Ghana 🇬🇭 it was tough. I shall reference this video on one of my videos. Thanks 🙏🏿 Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 is now on my list of countries to visit. I shall try and link up with you. How does one do that ?
Thank you so much! It was not easy. These types of trips are really hard to shoot but I know the info is so important for the viewers....Shoot me an email to contact@authenticafrican.com . We can discuss.
A lot of history in this tour bro, unbelievable to see the women and children slaveyard!
crazy bro. I wish I could share more. the group I was with was too loud and didnt really respect the process. It is a wild story though. Man our history is full of pain.
This was super interesting to learn of the Nova Scotia link, I knew of Liberia, and hoping, if visas come through will be there in November, but never knew of Freetowns history. Luv your content.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching. It was an eye opener for me too.
@@AuthenticAfrican I left out, living in Canada now, and learning that history of Atlantic Canada has been significant, while the country also wrestles with its treatment of First Nations, it still has a long way to go, have you heard any history of Africville in Halifax? Reflects how Black Canadians have been treated in this country.
Thanks for showing some of the pieces of the Africa puzzle.
Yes, of course. I am happy to share this information as much as possible.
Please research Jigger Victims
Thanks. Will do
And now many are returning and receiving passports and citizenship from President Bio as a way to welcome them back
Yes! True story.
@@AuthenticAfrican I am happy it is happening. I am curious what the President's strategy on this is; as we know, nothing is done just cause - I believe he is trying to get Sierra Leone as much positive attention(and eventually direct investment) that Ghana is receiving now.
Africacan Americans need to invest in Black Africa
I agree
