Captain Bill Pinkney, Master Emeritus of the Freedom Schooner Amistad and Wayne Bartow, a Trustee of AMISTAD America Inc., and one of the schooner builders, were participating in the celebrations at Africville during the last day of the 25th Annual Africville Reunion Festival organized by Africville Genealogical Society. Visiting Halifax during the time of the Africville Reunion is becoming a tradition for Amistad - it is the third year in a row when we could enjoy the hospitality and friendship of Nova Scotians. Freedom Schooner Amistad passed several times along the Africville shore in the early afternoon on Sunday, July 27th, the last day of the Reunion. AMISTAD America and Africville Genealogy Society hope to continue the cooperation in the future.
