The African
Slave Trade was a disastorous event that shattered the familial continuity
Africans once knew. First we were cut off from our past by chains,
then by distance, then by shame, and now by time. Today, there is
a rapidly growing interest in African Genealogy all over the African
Diaspora. Genealogical research can be challenging, especially for
those who are decendants of African slaves. The challenges I face
in the search for my ancestors, as well as the struggles of others,
has inspired me to create this site.
