The Bahamian Islands were a safe haven for slaves escaping the U.S. mainland ... they wanted to be FREE.
The Bahamians wanted their freedom from British rule ... and this year marked 40 years of freedom, yet they keep the message of slavery alive in Nassau, New Providence with slave horses for all the world to see.
As thousands of cruise passengers arrive and pour onto the streets of Nassau, ... their first impression is the beaten down slave horses. Anyone with a conscience can see the spirits of these animals is broken.
It's the same as a human slave ... in time their spirit is broken, and yet the Bahamian Government allows cruel use of horses to prevail. It's a shameful "custom" as is slavery itself.
The Bahamian Government, and especially the Department of Tourism should be in greater step with the times.
