Description
Breaking the Maafa Chain chronicles the true story of two sisters' struggle for freedom in the mid-nineteenth century. Captured and sold into slavery, they are forced to change their names and adapt to vastly different environments. One ends up in America, where slavery is still legal, while the other is taken to Victorian England, where she becomes the goddaughter of Queen Victoria. The book follows the sisters' journey as they navigate loss, survival, hope, identity, and tradition. Based on the remarkable true story of Sarah Forbes Bonetta, Breaking the Maafa Chain offers a powerful exploration of the human experience during a tumultuous period in history. This book is a poignant and thought-provoking account of two women's struggles for freedom and self-discovery in the face of overwhelming adversity.
