This is Seychelles and the legacy of Slavery, a podcast series in 8 parts. In this episode, we will be talking about maroons - Seychellois slaves who rebelled or ran away; those who managed to stay away, and the poor souls who were recaptured to face the fury and vindictiveness of both their owners and the authorities.
