Description of Restoring Ancestral Connections: The St. Eustatius Family Heritage Project

Welcome to the Disafemi History Podcast! In this episode, Wendy Aris is joined by Kenneth Cuvalay, president of the St. Eustatius African Burial Ground Alliance. Kenneth shares the compelling story behind the Family Heritage Project, "Make the Connection," which aims to reconnect descendants of enslaved people in St. Eustatius with their ancestral roots.

The discussion delves into the historical significance of the African burial grounds on the island, the challenges faced during archival research, and the broader implications of colonial history on the present-day community. Kenneth recounts his personal journey, the community's mixed reactions, and the project's role in fostering a deeper understanding of heritage and identity among African descendants.

Join us for an insightful conversation that highlights the importance of reclaiming history and the ongoing struggle for cultural and historical recognition. Don't miss this powerful episode that underscores the resilience and enduring spirit of the Caribbean people.                                                                                                                                                                            https://steustatiusafrikanburialground.org/report/                                                  https://tiekieboxproject.com/                        https://steustatiusafrikanburialground.org/                                                  https://smn-news.com/index.php/st-maarten-st-martin-news/39183-launch-of-family-heritage-project-make-the-connection-in-st-eustatius.html                  https://www.pbs.org/pov/films/storyofbones/
