[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

In 1761, a French ship wrecked and abandoned 60 slaves on Tromelin Island, a tiny sandbank with no trees. Forgotten by the world, they kept a fire burning and built a coral micro-society for 15 years, until only 7 women and a baby were finally rescued.

In 1761, the French vessel Utile was traveling illegally with enslaved Malagasy people when it struck a reef and wrecked off the coast of a barren sandbank in the Indian Ocean. The crew managed to build a makeshift raft and escape to Madagascar, but they left behind 60 enslaved people with nothing but the promise that they would return. That rescue never came.

For fifteen years, these survivors were completely abandoned by the world. They faced extreme heat, devastating cyclones, and a total lack of natural resources on a tiny speck of coral. Despite these conditions, they did not give up. They built a functioning society from the ground up, crafting tools from shipwreck debris, securing water, and somehow keeping a fire burning for over a decade. When they were finally reached by a French vessel in 1776, only seven women and an eight-month-old child were still alive. Their resilience in the face of such calculated betrayal remains a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit and the history we must never forget.

@WelcomeTheGulag Gaddamsel! As a South African I had a small operation in Ghana a few years ago. The workers could not believe the treatment myself and partners gave them, from food, PPE, lodging and security.

A 16-year-old student (now 22) from Limpopo, South Africa, has received attention for a safety device she designed. Her name is Bohlale Mphahlele. She created the idea for a device called the "Alerting Earpiece." It is a small device shaped like an earring. The goal is to help people in dangerous situations.

She got the idea because of high crime rates and gender-based violence in South Africa. She wanted to design something small, simple, and easy to use.

The design includes a small camera, a GPS tracker, and an alert button. The idea is that the user can press a hidden button. The device would then take a photo of the attacker. It would also send the user's location to trusted contacts and emergency services.

The device is still in development: The prototype has won awards (including bronze at the Eskom Expo) and international attention, but it’s not yet commercially available.
It will hit the market sooner than later show how one idea from one person will eventually effect the lives of many
Stay tuned to stay safe on this

You can't worship the same god your so-called slave masters and colonizers introduced to you and be free.

In Burkina Faso, President Ibrahim Traoré has officially banned the importation of second-hand clothing (often known as "Okrika" or "friperie") from Western countries like the United States and Europe.
