Prince Among Slaves is a documentary film about an African prince enslaved in America, whose remarkable story of hope during America’s early years presents lessons for today.

Good morning Carrboro High School, my name is JahNea Darby. February is Black History Month. Throughout this month, we will honor a new generation of black leaders and black poets on the announcements. Each day, we will celebrate the legacy of black Americans through either the reading of a poem or of a brief bio of an inspirational black figure.

West is a frequent commentator for news outlets and an expert in African American studies, Marxism, and transcendentalism.
