Amistad

Book • 1997
The Amistad is a non-fiction account of the 1839 rebellion aboard the Spanish schooner La Amistad, where enslaved Africans fought for their freedom.

The narrative details the harrowing journey from Africa, the capture of the ship, and the subsequent legal battle that reached the US Supreme Court.

The case became a pivotal moment in the abolitionist movement, highlighting the brutality of the transatlantic slave trade and challenging the legal status of enslaved people.

The story underscores the resilience and determination of the enslaved Africans to reclaim their liberty.

The Amistad's legacy continues to inspire discussions about justice, freedom, and the fight against oppression.
