The Ark of Return is a powerful memorial located at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City, dedicated to honoring the victims of the transatlantic slave trade. Designed by Rodney Leon, this permanent memorial serves as a poignant reminder of one of the darkest chapters in human history.
Every year on 25 March, the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade is observed to pay tribute to those who suffered and died under the brutal slavery system, while also raising awareness about the ongoing dangers of racism and prejudice in today's world.
