Last year around this time I was in South Africa. This year, I’m in England.
And if you’ve been following my journey… you already knew a post like this was coming.
Here in Bristol, I just visited:
1. The harbour; where ships once left these shores, carrying out one of the largest systems of human trafficking in history.
2. Queen Square House: a building tied to the administration of Bristol’s port economy during the height of the transatlantic human trafficking industry.
3. Queen Square formation: historic homes that literally form a square around the park - owned by those who built their fortunes through slavery. This space once held deep connections to that economy and power structure of England.
4. The centre of the square: the very ground where enslaved Africans were once auctioned ( human trafficked) Today it’s open green space with no plaque ( that I couldn’t find at least)
5. The only signage I could find… a small useless plaque near the harbour that barely acknowledge the scale of what actually happened here.
It is what it is.
To be be clear, my posts are for educational purposes with the motive of restoring cultural AND historical integrity.. I’m not looking for pity I’m looking for truth.

Big news!
I’m hitting the stage next Tuesday at the first Speakers Slam of the year, theme: “Against All Odds.”
2025 was a year of loss, grief and quieter reflection for me. After 3 drafts, I landed on a speech that I need to share. 2026 is about reclamation, and it starts with voice.
I’m speaking 3rd out of 10 incredible speakers. Come pull up, witness the power of storytelling !
