Purely Dominica

Purely Dominica


Like most of the Caribbean Islands, Dominica is observing the 200th anniversary of the passing of legislation in the British parliament to abolish the slave trade. It was this month 200 years ago that our ancestors was freed from slavery. Many of us forget the many people who gave-up the lives in the fight, hoping that one day the Slavery with be abolish. Today we’re willing testament of what our ancestor fought for equal rights and humanity, were a man is not judge by the color of his skin nor there is no race which is great than another.
