 In this episode of Dis A Fi Mi History Podcast, host Wendy Aris delves into the extraordinary life and legacy of Archibald Monteath — a notable figure in Caribbean history, embodying the narratives of colonialism and resilience. Born in West Africa and sold into slavery in Jamaica, Monteath’s story reflects both the violence of colonialism and the indomitable human spirit. Monteath’s rare autobiography provides a first-person account of his capture, enslavement, conversion to Christianity, and eventual freedom, offering invaluable insights into family genealogy and heritage. As one of the few surviving written narratives of an enslaved African in Jamaica, his testimony opens an important window into questions of African identity, cultural survival, faith, and memory in the Caribbean. We discuss what his story reveals about the Igbo presence in Jamaica, the role of the Moravian Church, and how personal narratives like his shape our understanding of colonial history, slavery, and emancipation. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in Caribbean history, African diaspora studies, family history, genealogy, or cultural heritage preservation. Dr Maureen Warner-Lewis is a Trinidadian and Tobagonian academic whose career focused on the linguistic heritage and unique cultural traditions of the African diaspora of the Caribbean. Her area of focus has been to recover the links between African cultures and Caribbean cultures. Dr Warner-Lewis is now retired professor, interested in Caribbean literature, in socio- and creole linguistics, in history of the Black Diaspora. https://www.amazon.ca/Archibald-Monteath-Igbo-Jamaican-Moravian/dp/9766401977 History Podcasts https://blog.feedspot.com/history_podcasts/ Caribbean History Podcasts https://blog.feedspot.com/caribbean_history_podcasts/ Caribbean Podcasts https://blog.feedspot.com/caribbean_podcasts/ History Podcasts For Historians https://blog.feedspot.com/history_podcasts_for_historians/ Follow: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/berkshirehalleppingpress/ Morning Journal Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CXMTL3NV Genealogy Workbook: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09NRHG3M3 Prayer Journal: https://a.co/d/bfSdIl0 Devotional Journal: https://a.co/d/8K3C8Hk Support The Podcast https://ko-fi.com/disafimihistory/tip Great Research Resource https://www.ancestorsofparadise.com/ Clothes https://effystyle.goaffpro.com/ Reservations for Barbados https://diaspora-discoveries.com/reservations Theme Music "Africa" is modern ethnic track with fresh chords, African vocal, orchestra.
