From the bustling markets of Zanzibar to the desolate plains of Kenya, Tusoli's journey takes her through a kaleidoscope of cultures, traditions, and landscapes. She meets people from all walks of life - from Masai warriors to coastal fishermen - and each encounter deepens her understanding of her own history and heritage.Africatown, Alabama, also known as Plateau, is a historic neighborhood located in Mobile County, Alabama, USA. The community was founded by a group of 110 enslaved Africans who were captured and brought to the United States on the last known slave ship, named 'The Clotilda', in 1860. After the Civil War and emancipation, the freed slaves were technically free but unable to come back to Africa and instead formed a distinct identity and culture, maintaining their African traditions and creating their own social institutions. They created their own Africa right in the United States and named it Africatown where descendants of 'The Clotilda' live to date.The pilgrimage to Africa for the descendants of 'The Clotilda' and Africatown and other Black Americans is not merely a physical undertaking but a spiritual one as well.
