25th Original Africatown Folk Festival slated for this weekend
By Rhoda A. Pickett
Staff Reporter
The 25th Original Africatown Folk Festival will have a new twist this year when author and researcher Sylviane Diouf presents her book about the history of the community and the ship that started the Africatown story.
The festival begins Friday with Diouf signing copies of her book, “Dreams of Africa in Alabama: The Slave Ship Clotilda and the Story of the Last Americans Brought to America.”, at the Museum of Mobile in downtown from 4 to 6 p.m.
Diouf, curator of digital collections at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in New York City, said Tuesday that her book centers on the historical perspective of the community created more than 140 years ago by Africans brought to Alabama as slaves aboard to topsail schooner Clotilda.
“I was really struck by the fact that they were very, very young when they became free again,” Diouf said, “They had incredible unity, and they were very tight-knit.
The story of Africatown begins when 110 young Africans were brought to mobile in 1860. The trip was financed by Timothy Meaher, a Mobile shipyard owner in business with his brothers Burns and James Meaher.
Timothy Meaher had commissioned the voyage to buy the captive Africans, despite a federal ban on importing slaves. The Clotilda’s arrival marked the last known instance of captured Africans being brought to the United States as slaves.
Diouf said that during her research about the transplanted Africans, she discovered the “love they had for their home place and their families and where came from.”
“It was really a safe haven in their imagination.” She said. When tragedy struck, for them or for their children, they always mention that that would not have happened there (in Africa) and how good it was there.”
Diouf said she hopes her readers and listeners come away with an interest in learning about their own ancestors.
“What they did is extraordinary”, Diouf said of Africatown’s original inhabitants “They did things that nobody knows about or has any clue about. They were very strong and very inspiring people. When you explore their story, it gives you the strength to deal with whatever comes your way in a strong and dignified way. It’s very empowering.”
The debut of Diouf’s book and the folk festival came at an opportune time, said Museum of Mobile Director Sheila Flanagan. The two coincide with the national traveling exhibit “Captive Passage: The Transatlantic Slave Trade and the Making of the Americas” – being shown here, and the local exhibit, “On the Heels of Slavery,” Flanagan said
“All of this is so appropriate, and it is serendipitous that her book was published and available at the same time.” Flanagan said.
Festival organizers also expect representatives from the West African nations of Benin, Ghana, Togo and Nigeria to attend this weekend’s activities, said Robert Battles, executive director of the Africatown USA Community Mobilization project Inc. The delegation is expected to include a film crew that will be in Mobile March 25, preparing a documentary on Africatown, Battles said.
“What we expect to achieve is to really solidify reconciliation with the people of Africa and the people of Alabama with regard to the Africatown community,” he said. “What we hope to do is put Africatown on the map as a tourism destination.”
