By 31st May, the exhibition will hit its last show and head over to Mombasa. The town is well known for its rich and indepth storyline of slavery.

The documentary made an overview of the massive deportation of African populations to different parts  of the world including the Americas, Europe, the Indian Ocean, the Middle East and Asia.

Interestingly, Government representatives were engaged in a debate shortly after the documentary, on how to tackle modern day slavery such as Human trafficking.
