Ma'afa is a Swahili term meaning "great disaster" or "calamity," and it is often used to refer to the historical period of the transatlantic slave trade and its devastating impacts on African people and societies. This term encompasses the suffering, loss, and trauma experienced during this time, highlighting the collective memory of the African diaspora. It emphasizes the need to acknowledge and understand the legacy of these events in contemporary discussions about race, identity, and justice.
