Slave Memorial

Below are images from a slave memorial near the Diamond beach where during the early nineteenth century a slave ship run aground and killed everyone on board, including hundreds of slaves. It's a series of sculptures honoring the memory of the slaves killed by the negligence of their captors. It was a very cool and powerful memorial.



Behind the memorial is my friend Jean-Michel who, along with his wife, were kind enough to take me around and show me the island.
