This map chronicles revolts by African and African Descendants against the Transatlantic Slave Trade, Slavery, and colonialism.

The map on Slave Revolts is on blackslaverevolts.org! A second map is underway on the Anti-colonial and Civil Rights struggles from the 1940s-1990s.

Queen Ndate Yalla Mbodj had a female army similar to that of Dahomey (Benin).  She managed to resist the encroaching Moors and the French over twenty years, holding onto her claim to an area in present Senegal-Gambia;  protecting her people from enslavement.  This is one of many accounts of African and African descendants’ resistance to slavery highlighted on the map!
