Exploring Caribbean Genealogy with Paul Crooks: Uncovering Ancestral Roots and Colonial History

from Dis a Fi Mi History Podcast: Explore Caribbean Ancestry & Culture · host Wendy Aris

In this episode, we delve into colonialism and Caribbean history with renowned genealogist Paul Crooks. Mr. Crooks is not only an author but a passionate speaker who has dedicated over 13 years to uncovering the rich narratives of African Caribbean genealogy. His groundbreaking journey led him to be the first individual of African Caribbean descent to trace his ancestry back to his enslaved ancestors in Jamaica during the transatlantic slave trade. Join us as Paul shares his experiences and insights into the importance of heritage and family history in understanding our past and shaping our identities today. Whether you are interested in your own family genealogy or the broader implications of colonialism in the Caribbean, this episode offers valuable perspectives and a deeper appreciation for the stories that define us.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             Website:                                                                                         https://paulcrooks.info/                                                                                                  Books - Amazon Link                                                                         https://www.amazon.com/Paul-Crooks/e/B001K81MDU?                                          Course Offerings:                                                                   https://www.eventbrite.ca/o/black-history-speaker-paul-crooks-18089386487                                                                                                                                               Contact                                                                                                                         Twitter: @history_speaker                                                                         Instagram:@ ancestrytalks                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Dis A Fi Mi History Podcast Contact:                                                                            Twitter: @eppinghall                                                                                                    Email: [email protected]                                                                  Genealogy Workbook:                                                  https://www.amazon.com/Genealogy-Workbook-Family-History-Research/dp/B09NRHG3M3/                                                                                                                                                                                                                            #slaverecords #podcast #jamaicanhistory #ancestralroots #AfricanCaribbeangenealogy #
