- Doctor Ashwin Desai has applied his training as a sociologist to bring the human aspects of history to life - especially in telling the story of the indentured workers. It’s all part of the epic African journey of the Indian diaspora - as he explained to Kerusha...
This is so educational, so sad to see how our ancestors were treated! This made me cry!
Wow.. this brought tears to my eyes to see what my ancestors went through. Thanks you for sharing. God bless from California 👏🏾🙏🏾
I'm currently reading Ashwin/Wahed book don't have the words to describe it...can't wait for the next one
So the Indian ppl were slaves to Africans who in turn were taken by the Americans to be there slaves ? Iam adopted from India but very interested to learn how slavery made its ugly mark on the Indian culture .In Africa were Indian ppl indentured to white ppl or Aficans ?
But when European s outlawed African slave trade crossing was the word coolie or endentured servant used to justify replacing them with Indians instead ? I never realized that indians were used in the Caribbean and the islands as well as S.america ( I think ) slaving away on the sugar plantations ect. Thats so interesting to see how one group of ppl could originate in one area then w migration populate to create a whole other culture in another i thought Indian servants only were enslaved in India only when the Britsh took over .Yes call me ignorant & sheltered but I seriously have never had a desire to learn about the ppl , or culture of India or how they came to be who they are but also I don't think i was ready to appreciate and really respect the knowledge either. I was adopted and didn't really engage w another Indian person till middle school 😐. I want to read this book and learn more now !!!!
It's a lifetime trademark scare on Indian's especially when all the videos released
