Slavery



They put them in chain. Grab them at the belly of the slave ship and what destination and career were they been taken to. No one among them knew. packed and arranged like sardines, Lying side by side in a void of “no return. The Portugal where the Portuguese, the Dutch, the France and those who were thrown over board were Henry Solesta Williams, Markus Garvey, Martin Luther king junior, Hail salasie and Ahmed Sakutoure and more.
As I am a citizen of this nation,my journey toward democratization has been a miserable one and not been a smooth journey and I want my country to alway build in the motherland and demand on their devotion . THANK YOU
