    In this gripping episode, we dive into the harrowing true story of Captain James Riley, an American sea captain whose shipwreck off the coast of North Africa in 1815 led to unimaginable trials. Captured and enslaved by desert nomads, Riley and his crew faced brutal conditions, starvation, and the unforgiving Sahara. But Riley’s incredible determination and resourcefulness allowed him to forge a unique bond with his captors, ultimately leading to his freedom. Join us as we explore this remarkable tale of survival, resilience, and humanity that influenced both American history and the abolitionist movement.
