We were stolen, sold and bought together from the African Continent
We got on the slave ships together, we lay back to belly in the holds of the
slave ships in each others excrement and urine together. Sometimes died
together and our lifeless bodies thrown overboard together. Today we are
standing up together with faith and even some joy.
