See all formats and editions

Women played an equal part to men in the war against slavery and colonial rule in Africa, and many of them were no ordinary women.

There were women from the royal household who joined queen warriors in the war against European traders.

These women fought, lost and won battles while the wives of the slave traders were at home in their mansions enjoying the fruits from the labour of enslaved Africans on the plantation in the Americas.

There is no evidence to show that European women joined their slave-trading husbands to raid villages for slaves and to help conquer Africa.

African women met these men at the front lines, with no fear in their hearts and souls, but with guns and swords in their hands.

This is because before Islam and Christianity, even in ancient times, women ruled Africa with their men, and fought wars with and without men.

Many of these warrior gained military skills by going to war with their parents as children.

This book chronicles the lives and times of extraordinary noble African heroes, who fought wars in Africa against both slavery and colonial rule.

The wars continued when the kidnapped Africans were forced on the ships where there were mutinies, murder and suicidal attempts as they sailed the great Atlantic Ocean towards the slave land, (the Americas).

Those who arrived at their destinations, though the treatment and condition on the ship broke their spirits, and they looked like skeletons, they still continued fighting against slavery until it came to a end.
