Welcome back to the Pan Africans Now Podcast! In this episode titled "The African Diaspora: Bridging the Gap Part Four", our host Sheka Blessed takes us on a gripping journey through the heart-wrenching stages of the transatlantic slave trade. From the brutal abduction and sale of Africans to the harrowing conditions they endured in the many slave trading forts of West Africa including Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Benin, Senegal, and more. We also focus on the significant slave transport hubs in the Bight of Biafra as we uncover the tragic realities faced by our African ancestors. Through powerful narratives and personal accounts, we dive into the courageous acts of resistance, including the unforgettable revolts aboard ships like the Meermin and the Amistad. Prepare to be moved as we explore the depths of African resilience and the enduring spirit that continues to bridge the gap between our past and our future. @PanAfricansNow
