The wealth of Europe and America was built on the unpaid labour of enslaved people — that is what many Africans believe. Over four centuries of the slave trade, at least 12 million people were forcibly taken to another part of the world. African culture still preserves the memory of abuses committed by former colonial powers. Across the continent, there are calls to recognise the slave trade as a crime against humanity, pay reparations and return cultural treasures. In the new film 'Africa. We Need Freedom', we explore the history of the slave trade and how it still affects Africa’s relations with the West today. Premiere tomorrow at 1:00 AM, 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM on RT.Doc channel.
