Description
Most people know about slavery in the United States, but many will be surprised to learn that in the Caribbean, eleven million Africans were sold into slavery before slave trade came to a halt. Few are aware of the vast network of buying, transporting, and selling of human beings involved. Each scene in Stolen Lives, portrays a unique, historically accurate event of slave abuse, cruelty, brutality, and murder. Yet this interesting story is uplifting in spite of depicted slave abuse. Names of the plantations in this work are actual names of Jamaican plantations at the time. The Maroon colonies factually existed on Jamaica, as did the limestone cockpits and the famous Me-No- Sen-You-No-Com community.
