  1. Toshi Sakai (verified owner) –

    Congratulations on a very important work. You and your team have produced what is probably the best source for learning about Afro-Panamanian identity. There are other books on history and sociology but this one gets to the core of the matter. I wish you much success and hope that this labor of love is seen by everyone, particularly young people. -Toshi Sakai
