The memories and images of the trafficked millions remain largely unknown.
Yet one artist is working to bring that forgotten history to light with a project that remembers the ancestors, while paying homage to their descendants.
Kwame?
Hello, Mr Jackson.
Sam, man.
How are you?
So, let's look at what you got.
OK.
Are these just normally out like this?
Yeah.
Wow!
It's concrete, actually.
And so far, like our people, very resilient. (CHUCKLES)
A'ight!
Each person, each sculpture has a story.
So, this is a story of the people who were on those ships?
