RE: A picture a story
Yes Benin was one of the first country involved. In this little town Ouidah there is a walk up to the beach which is exactly the same than the slaves had to walk unchained in the pas before going in the big ships to Americas. It is very touching and emotional especially when your guide is a local speaking about his ancestors. Anyway... if you go in Benin, go there.
A problem of translation for plague of history? I struggled a bit to translate it!
thanks for the additional info Isa
I thought plague of history was an befitting term
comment dit-on en français?
En français " fléau de l'Histoire". Otherwise curse of History is probably a good term
ah good to know, curse or plague would work
or even scourge of history might be more literal
