What If Slavery Gave Us Something AMAZING, MAGICAL and ENDURING?
Slavery was an abomination, a tragedy that continues to haunt us.
Unbelievably, millions of Africans did not even reach the Americas but died during the horrors of the Middle Passage. The world has yet to recover from the loss of four million lives brought to a final and violent end.
Imagine that the Middle Passage was NOT their last journey.
Imagine that not all of those counted as dead are truly gone.
Imagine that some of the bravest souls found freedom in a paradise beneath the ocean and joined others who chose to die rather than suffer through slavery.
Imagine that they sent us a King.
