Most people believe enslaved Africans lost their history forever.
That their names, cultures, and origins vanished once the ships crossed the Atlantic.
In this documentary, we explore what can — and cannot — be traced about enslaved African ancestry. Using historical records, maps, shipping routes, cultural evidence, and DNA research, we explain how historians reconstruct African origins and why tracing regions matters, even when names are lost.
This video is the first part of a series examining African regions targeted during the transatlantic slave trade, the routes used, and where enslaved Africans were taken.
📌 Topics covered:
– Can enslaved ancestry be traced?
– African regions most affected by slavery
– Ports, routes, and destination patterns
– Limits of DNA ancestry tests
– Why African origins still matter today
