The gravest crime against humanity

Saturday Star

|

March 28, 2026

THERE'S the story of the last surviving passenger on the last-ever slave ship that sailed from the West African coast to North America in 1859.

- ASHLEY GREEN-THOMPSON

She was a short woman named Matilda McCrear, and in her seventies she walked 24km from her home in Alabama to Selma in the USA to make her claim for compensation for the man-made suffering she and her family had endured. She had been captured at the age of two with her mother and sisters in what is now Benin by African slave traders.

Her name was Abake, which means "born to be loved by all", and she was of the Tarkar people.
