Finally, Osifekunde's memoir underlines the Yoruba factor in the slave trade, Atlantic familial, social and business networks, the travails of bondage, agency of enslaved people in the abolitionist era, and the limitations of freedom. It also shines light on the complicated relations between slavers and enslaved people, the birth of global Yoruba history, and the African, American, and European circulations of enslaved Yorubas.
