Kwabena Bene

Postby Nanoose » Tue Aug 30, 2011 1:18 pm

Been trying to find some information on “Kwabena Bene” who was a Maroon warrior that was deported to Nova Scotia Canada in the early 1700s. Kwabena Bene didn’t like his new home in Canada so he rebelled and I don’t blame him because a lot of the deported Maroons were hired to help build forts for the British which was probably against ever thing they believed in. Anyway I am only able to find a little information and to find out more you have to buy a book which is against every thing I believe in. Cheers!
What's pushing us apart isn't loneliness what's holding us together isn't love. Listen to the man who's been touched all his life yes he's the one they call the fool. Where is that savoir of the sidewalk life and the road that takes us to the crusades? We still got along way to go yes we still got a along way to go.

I tried Googling him, we came up first in the searches then tons of links to sites that promote the book.

Talk your public library into buying the book?
