Paths of Return

We meet black Americans who discovered ancestral links to Sierra Leone via DNA tests.

On location in Freetown, we meet Black Americans who have recently discovered they have ancestral links to Sierra Leone via a DNA test. Some are visiting Sierra Leone for the first time to learn about their heritage; others have taken up Sierra Leone's offer of citizenship and have either moved here or are planning to move and start businesses here.
