Did You Know That?

Beyonce's "Love Drought" video was in memory of "Igbo Landing" story. An act of mass resistance against slavery.

A group of Igbo slaves revolted, took control of their ship, rather than submit to slavery, they drowned themselves.

When they were drowning, they were singing in Igbo, a song that translates to:

"the water spirit brought us. The water spirit will take us home". (Mmụọ mmiri du anyị bia, mmụọ mmiri ga-edu anyi laa)

May 1803 will forever be remembered in Black history as one that showed the courage of the Black race in the face of subjection.

During the transatlantic slave trade in Africa (Nigeria) the Igbo Nation were revered because they were industrious, proud, independent, performed their duties with little or no supervision.

As such, John Couper and Thomas Spalding purchased Igbos for export to the US to work on plantations in Simons Island.

Each was to be sold for rates as high as $100. Among those taken captives were 75 Igbo men.

In Dunbar Creek on St. Simons Island, Glynn County, Georgia, there is a deeply historic site called Igbo Landing. So named because of the mass su***de of Igbo people captured as slaves in 1803.

The history started when about 75-100 Igbo people from what's now known as Nigeria were captured, were bounded and put on ship to be sold as slaves in plantations across the Americas.

Most of the Africans who were enslaved were captured in battles or were k.idnapped, though some were sold into slavery for debt or as punishment.

The captives were marched to the coast, often enduring long journeys of weeks or even months, shackled to one another.

Rather than head to the arrival port, one of the Igbo chiefs taken captive gives a directive and suddenly, they turn back to the Dunbar creek singing that the water spirits and their god Chukwu take them back to their land.

During the voyage, the Igbo slaves rose in rebellion and drowned their captors.

The ship was grounded. Left with no clear direction
