Rarity of Africans

July 12, 2019 by Smerliene Rodriguez Leave a Comment

Much of the time when we learn about Africans, there is conversation associated with negative history, however, at Sanssouci Park, in Potsdam, there are head busts of African men and women that acknowledged Africans a couple of hundred years ago. When I saw the sculptures, I automatically thought they represented the servants that served royalty at that time, but our professor surprised me when he said they were simply being positively represented. Although surprised I was very pleased that  their significance was to basically show appreciation.
