We who are alive today are the ancestors of those yet to be born. They will commune with us, just like we can prayerfully reach back to those who survived the Middle Passage. We need therefore to think like ancestors so that we can shape a bright future for our descendants. pic.twitter.com/7Hw8tIG3gz

The Middle Passage was the crossing from Africa to the Americas, which the ships made carrying their ‘cargo’ of slaves. It was so-called because it was the middle section of the trade route taken by many of the ships.
Today, we pay tribute to the perseverance and resilience of millions of men, women and children who were seized from their homes and nations, to endure the Middle Passage’s hellish conditions, and the generations that toiled in the brutal fields and factories of the Americas. pic.twitter.com/lnAStNU2Qn
