Before the transatlantic slave trade, many African societies thrived with diverse cultures, languages, and social structures. People lived in various forms of communities, including hunter-gatherer societies, agricultural villages, and urban centers, engaging in trade, art, and spiritual practices. Their lives were often interconnected with the land, relying on agriculture and livestock for sustenance, while also participating in vibrant oral traditions and community governance. Despite the continent's diversity, many societies shared a strong sense of community and kinship.
