Episode 7 (Finale) - Awake and sing, 230 years and beyond
Joyful, thankful, humble, generous; service and sacrifice modeled by church members and leaders echo the history we've explored on this journey from 1792, grounded in the realities of life in the 21st century. The story of Zion is far from finished but we have come to the end of this series. 'Awake and Sing the Song' - In February, Rev. Archer-Campbell located an elderly lady at Murray Town where class meeting is still in operation and the Sankey Hymn book is used. She graciously rendered a verse, providing the tune for a near forgotten hymn w...

Episode 6 - Canadian connections, and the #1792project
Halifax (Kjipuktuk) is located in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq Wəlastəkwiyik (Maliseet), and Passamaquoddy Peoples first signed with the British Crown in 1726. The treaties did not deal with the surrender of lands and resources but in fact, recognized Mi’kmaq and Wəlastəkwiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. In this episode Adrian Labor highlights seminal works on Black Canadian stories from the eighteenth cen...

Episode 4 - The Edmonds story, from Kingdom wars through the middle passage

Episode 3 - A Fellowship of the Free
In the closing decades of the eighteenth century, the convergence of various streams of transatlantic migration on Sierra Leone resulted in the intermixing of people with different life experiences of enslavement and freedom in Africa, the West Indies, Europe and America. In this episode, Adrian Labor discusses the Fellowship of the Free; Akindele Decker highlights the significance of language in the context of this discussion.
