After the Clotilda: Africatown's Hidden History - Hardcover
Description
by Anitra Butler-Ngugi (Author)
In 2019, the remains of the Clotilda were discovered in the Mobile River. The discovery of the last slave ship helped document the history of Africatown--a community built by Africans who had been illegally brought to Mobile, Alabama, on that ship in 1860 and enslaved. But for more than 160 years, the people of Africatown have been preserving their own history and culture--and fighting for a hard-won community that has been encroached upon for decades. In this book, students will learn about the survivors of the Clotilda, the community they built, and the people's resilience in the face of environmental racism.
