The Fall

In the early 18th century, escaped enslaved Africans founded Maroon communities in Jamaica’s Blue Mountains under the leadership of Queen Nanny. Celebrated as a symbol of resistance against slavery and colonialism, her legacy endures today through annual ceremonies in Moore Town and the testimony of her descendant, Simone Harris.
