Overview

This tour examines Barbados's history of enslavement and emancipation, focusing exclusively on the lives of Black Barbadians, both enslaved and free. It visits sites that reveal their journey from early colonial interactions to freedom: Yarico's Story at Kendall, the Newton Burial Ground, the Ironmongers Tavern slave market, the “Negro Yard” at Guinea Plantation, Baileys and Simmons Plantation (site of the Bussa Rebellion), Rock Hall, Mount Wilton, and Hangman's Hill. This tour intentionally excludes discussion of governors, state, or royal officials, centring the narrative on the experiences of Black lives unapologetically.

Furthermore, this tour can be customised to the traveler's specific interests, allowing for a more personalised and in-depth exploration of this crucial aspect of Barbados's heritage with a historian who is well knowledgeable regarding Black Barbadian history.
