Badagry River

THE BADAGRY RIVER

This is an extremely significant water to me and my ancestors because it was a point where African slaves were sold and shipped off to several unknown destinations.

For me, it signifies the end of freedom for the African descent. And as a result of this barbaric act, there are now in the world millions of displaced Africans with little or no knowledge of their descendants/Ancestors, zero knowledge of their cultures or values. Many of them do not even know {without taking the test}what part of Africa they come from.

But this river also represents a change in the history of Africa. And everyday, the African continent continues to fight for its own.
