West Africans In Early America

Historians often present African-American history as if it started when Africans boarded slave ships. And as the enslaved made contributions to the development of the United States, society either ignored their contributions or acknowledged their inputs and Blackness, but ignored their specific African heritage.

These nine panels present the history of nine men and women who made contributions to the development of the United Sates during a time when many Europeans believed that Africans were incapable of intelligent thoughts. When providing their history, we included information about their specific African heritage to inspire Africa’s children at home and abroad.

Presented in March 2012. The nine panels hang at:
