St. Helena's Unarthed Legacy: A Powerful Documentary on History, Identity, and Reconciliation
History Meets the Present on a Remote Island
St. Helena, a volcanic speck in the South Atlantic, is known for its dramatic scenery and its most famous resident - Napoleon Bonaparte. But beneath the island's surface lies a darker truth waiting to be unearthed.
Annina van Neel, overseeing the construction of St. Helena's long-awaited airport, stumbles upon a discovery that will forever change the island's narrative. The excavation unearths the remains of thousands of enslaved Africans, a powerful testament to the horrors of the transatlantic slave trade.
A Legacy of the Enslaved
This discovery sparks a crucial conversation. Many islanders have ancestral ties to these enslaved people. The question becomes: how can they create a memorial that truly honors this tragic past and fosters reconciliation?
Annina, determined to advocate for this unearthed legacy, seeks the expertise of Peggy King Jorde, an African American preservationist with a lifelong dedication to social justice. Together, they navigate the complexities of this sensitive issue, engaging with the islanders and exploring their own evolving understanding of the island's history.
This documentary is a must-watch for anyone interested in:
The lingering effects of colonialism and the slave trade
The importance of historical preservation and ancestral connection
Building a more inclusive and honest narrative about the past
The power of collaboration and activism in fostering reconciliation
This is more than just a historical discovery. It's a story about identity, belonging, and the search for a more complete understanding of ourselves.

American frontier settlers along the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers increasingly were relying on the outlet to the Gulf of Mexico for their as yet modest upland enterprises.
