Their words address the tragedy and resulting political, social, and economic damage caused to African People by the slave trade, slavery, colonialism, poverty and anti-Black racism. Their reactions and reflections lead the contributions for this compelling, one-of-a-kind Alphabet Book suitable for all ages.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>The Global Afrikan Congress - Nova Scotia Chapter (GAC-NS) was established in 2010.
