Special thanks to all the voices who helped bring this episode to life.

So first, thanks to Patricia Williams, my lovely neighbor who read a passage from Margaret Walker’s poem, For My People.

To the amazing Medicine Singers whose track Sunset I have used in this episode. They sing in an Eastern Algonquin dialect, so I’m thrilled to be able to use their song.

Thanks to my dear friend Robin Kouyate and her beautiful daughter Jasmine for their voices.

And to the wonderful voice over actors whom you can find on fiverr.com. They are

• Linton Tulloch
• Richard Stibbard
• Peter Walters
• Grace Jensen
• Soraya Martin
• TJ Trueh I want to give a special thanks to TJ who read the list of inventory which given the content was a difficult ask. But he gave it such beautiful and soulful reading that really gave the proper homage to those people who were enslaved
