π Series Description:
Before they were stolen, they were kings, midwives, warriors, and griots.
Before the chains, before the ships, they lived by the sea.
The Price of Black Skin is a gripping historical drama based on real events from the early days of the transatlantic slave trade. Set in 15th-century West Africa, this series follows the lives of those who were caught, betrayed, and sold - and those who justified it all in the name of God, gold, and empire.
ποΈ Follow Jali, a young griot apprentice whose village is raided by Portuguese slavers.
π₯ Meet Ama, a Mende woman who chooses resistance over silence.
π Watch Father LourenΓ§o, a missionary who must confront the gospel's role in injustice.
π‘οΈ Stand in the courtrooms of kings as they decide between power and their own people.
This is not just the story of slavery.
It is the story of memory.
Of how people were broken - and how their voices survived.
