"A few years ago in early 2020 I visited Senegal as part of my research on the trans Atlantic slave trade. My guides took me to N'der, a village close to St. Louis. I was told a story about a group of women who had immolated themselves- refusing to be captured/kidnapped into slavery by marauding Moor slave traders who had come from the north. I was told that the men of the village had been in St. Louis fighting against the French. That was the year 1819 or 1820. This was years... ~3 centuries... ~300 years since the commencement of the transatlantic slave trade... but it's not clear how many years it had been since the start of the trans-saharan slave trade. It was for me a mind freezing encountering, a junction where the two slave trades met... and met also with the colonial capture of the region... the terror... and considering the various types of resistances enacted by people... for over 300 years... resistances on land, in water, over water, internal implosions and external detonations... and self immolations..."-- provided by distributor.
