It was a winding road that brought the Tucker family from the United States to Angola. They are descendants of the first Africans taken from Angola to America. "We are descendants of the first African - or, at that time we didn't know, Angolan - black child born in the English colonies or British colonies. And as we continue to come and to forge these relationships, we're building bridges", said Wanda Tucker, descendant of Angolan slaves. The Tucker's visit follows an invitation of Angola President Joao Lourenço.
