Black Families Homeschooling Our Children To Excellence

The Caribbean and the Americas were never on the sidelines of history.
They were the axis of empire, trade, resistance, and culture.
What many were taught as “peripheral” was actually foundational.
This isn’t about rewriting history it’s about remembering it fully.

Did you know? Freedom didn’t always mean staying.
After slavery ended in the United States, many formerly enslaved people made a powerful choice: they migrated—not just within the U.S., but across the Americas and even back to Africa.
Facing Black Codes, racial violence, and unfair labor systems, some African Americans sought real freedom, land, and opportunity elsewhere.
🌍 Where did they go?
• Trinidad & Tobago (the Merikins)
• Jamaica, Haiti, The Bahamas
• Mexico (where slavery was abolished in 1829)
• Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, Belize
• Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela
• Liberia and Sierra Leone
These migrations were mostly voluntary, though driven by harsh conditions. They were often supported by foreign governments, churches, companies, and community networks—not the U.S. government.
📚 Why this matters:
Post-emancipation migration reminds us that formerly enslaved people were not passive. They made choices, built communities, and shaped cultures across the Caribbean, Latin America, and Africa.
Freedom is not just a law—it’s the ability to live with dignity.

The Caribbean, Central America, and South America are regions of exceptional natural wealth, endowed with abundant mineral resources, fertile land, and strategic geographic positioning. Beginning in the late 15th century, European powers—most notably Spain—systematically extracted this wealth during the era of conquest and exploration. Precious metals such as gold and silver, along with gemstones including emeralds and rubies, were removed on a massive scale, fundamentally reshaping the global economy and contributing to the rise of mercantilism and colonial empires.
Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Caribbean in 1492, while intended as a route to India, marked the beginning of sustained European involvement in the region. What followed was not discovery in a neutral sense, but conquest and appropriation. The Caribbean quickly became one of the most economically valuable regions in the world, serving as a cornerstone of European wealth accumulation.
During the height of the transatlantic slave trade, Caribbean colonies—particularly sugar-producing islands—generated extraordinary profits. Historical records indicate that some Caribbean territories were individually more valuable than the thirteen North American colonies combined. Saint-Domingue (modern-day Haiti) was the wealthiest colony in the world prior to the Haitian Revolution, producing immense wealth for France through enslaved labor.
Despite this history, many Caribbean nations today are framed as economically underdeveloped or unstable. This narrative obscures the reality that wealth was not lost but transferred—concentrated in European states and later global financial systems—while the region was left with structural inequalities, debt burdens, and limited access to ownership of high-value land and resources. Contemporary examples, such as luxury tourism revenues generated, underscore the continued extraction of value without proportional local ownership or benefit.
Understanding the present conditions of the Caribbean requires acknowledging this historical continuum of extraction, exploitation, and external control.
