![]() on reflection In a short video Mandisa gives her very personal reflection on the history of her ancestors and what the abolition of the slavery trade act means to her. Mandisa says: “I wish people could see another side of slavery and not just black people wearing chains, shackles and being half naked. They weren’t powerless; they fought every step of the way."
