There's an Igbo village being built in Virginia. Apparently there were so many Igbo people shipped there during the slave trade that they became a majority, so the site will serve as a homage to those Igbo people. You can see more on the Frontier museum of Virginia's website http://www.frontiermuseum.org/WestAfrica.html |

Very interesting pictures. How often will they hold events there? Also, the first link you posted is not working. 1 Like |

PhysicsQED: http://www.frontiermuseum.org/WestAfrica.html It's actually a museum piece, so I don't think much events will be held there except demonstrations of 1700's Igbo/West African life. |

Thank you for sharing. I would love to visit the Igbo village. California is so far from Virginia & I don't travel by plane. |
