‘The Merikins’
Documentary 2012
Creative Director/Director of Photography: D.K.Dennison
Synopsis:
Centuries after the Atlantic Triangular Slave Trade, its routes continue to be conduits of strife, bondage, and freedom. This documentary dislodges the story of the Merikin people from the crevices of history and breathes new life amid the dust of time and its forgetting.
Once enslaved, they rose beneath the British flag to fight in the War of 1812, against those who they saw as their chief oppressors, the American plutocracy. At the wars end, their fates were cast out and sent adrift to the shores of South Trinidad, an island to the very South of the Caribbean archipelago.
