“There are so many nuggets to chew on, but Chapter 6 on restoration stayed with me. ‘We are the proof that the story did not end in captivity’ summed up my whole assignment here on earth. Thank you for putting that into words.”

From Africa to America: The Stolen Story
A clear, powerful journey through how memory, faith, and community survived capture, the Middle Passage, and life in a strange land and what that legacy means for us today.
A concise, ~25-page read for personal reflection, families, churches, and small groups.
Why This Book Matters
The Survival of Memory
Enslavers tried to erase language, culture, and family but memory found a way to live in whispers, work songs, and daily rituals. This book traces how that memory survived and was passed down.
Faith & Community as Resistance
From hidden prayers to Sunday gatherings, faith and community became tools of survival and quiet resistance, forming a backbone of strength that still shapes us today.
Lessons for Right Now
The story doesn’t end in the past. Each chapter connects history to present-day decisions, inviting you to lead with truth, discipline, and compassion in your own life.
What Readers Are Saying
Early readers are using this book as a mirror, a reminder, and a roadmap for what comes next.
“This isn’t another book that only rehearses the pain. It names the wounds but also points toward healing, rebuilding, and responsibility. Short, clear, and exactly what we need in this moment.”
“I finished it in one sitting and then started it again with a highlighter. It helped me reframe what my grandparents survived and what my children are inheriting.”
“We used this as a starter text for our small group. The questions it raised about memory, faith, and community opened real conversations we’d been avoiding.”
