Publisher's Synopsis
From Freedom to Freedom projects a symbolic journeying back to Africa as a way to help bring healing to the deep wounds of slavery in two countries integral to slave trade, the United States and Nigeria. The book addresses the three emerging interests, (1) the search for African ethnic origins of the descendants of the enslaved Africans in the United States, (2) the increasing attention to African voices, inspired by the UNESCO hinterland slave routes and (3) reconnecting regions and peoples long separated by the transatlantic slave trade.
