Have you watched Netflix's documentary 'Descendent'? It's a must-see. We were privileged to reveal the ancestry of some of the citizens of Africatown. Check out the YouTube special where we spoke to the descendants.

Acknowledgments:

This story would not be told without the work of The Clotilda Descendant’s Association and the many other groups working to preserve the historical significance of Africatown.
