Meserette Kentake is the founder of Kentake Page. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, she now resides in London. Meserette holds a BSc in Counselling Psychology, but her lifelong passion lies in Afrikan/Black history. She has a particular interest in the Maafa (Atlantic trafficking and captivity), dedicating much of her research and writing to this subject. She began an MA in African History, but the university suspended the course just six weeks before she would have completed it. Undeterred, Meserette continues her independent scholarship and is currently working on her debut book, which will focus on the Maafa. Kentake Page is dedicated to her mother, Delores Anderson, who often encouraged her by saying: "You walk around with too much knowledge in your head. You must learn to share it with the world." Meserette sees Kentake Page as both a cultural duty and her spiritual contribution to the world. She is also available as a historical researcher and consultant for scripts, documentaries, exhibitions, and related projects. For inquiries, contact Meserette at meserette@kentakepage.com.
