Part 2 of a 2 part video that commemorates the 200 anniversary of the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade. As envisioned by Tarrah Mauricette: PART 1: "Our community gathers around candles in a darken room. The sound of the Atlantic Ocean is heard. The story of the Middle Passage is told. We remember the movement of 60 million Africans by slave ship over a 270-year period. There is a respectful awareness of our ancestors."PART 2: "The darkness is broken by images of our children, as they drum and tell the stories of our leaders and speak of the future that they will shape."2007 will mark 200 years since the UK Parliament passed the 1807 Bill to abolish the slave trade in the former British Empire.
