They may be labeled as outcasts or rebels, but in reality, they're the ones who are brave enough to challenge the status quo and forge their own path. Let's celebrate the black sheep in our lives - the ones who inspire us to think differently, to question the norms, and to embrace our individuality.

THE HIDDEN STORY OF KALULU THE 12 YEAR OLD AFRICAN SLAVE BOY WHO DROWNED IN LIVINGSTONE.


THE HIDDEN STORY OF KALULU THE 12-YEAR-OLD AFRICAN SLAVE BOY WHO DROWNED IN LIVINGSTONE.

 The photos are of Kalulu, a 12-year-old African slave boy who drowned in Livingstone Falls in the Congo while working as a porter for British explorer, Sir Henry Morton Stanley, who also appears in one of the photos.


He was sold to Stanley by an Arab merchant in Zanzibar. His real name was Ndugu Mhali,but because Stanley didn't like name, he christened him Kalulu.

Between 1872 to 1873, Kalulu accompanied Stanley around Europe and America, and during that time posed for a wax model which was later installed at Madame Tussaud’s museum in London.

Stanley briefly enrolled him at a school in Wandsworth, SouthWest London, where the headmaster later noted that he was " clever and progressing in English."

After the death of Dr David Livingstone in Zambia in 1874, Stanley who was keen to carry on with Livingstone's exploration work, withdrew Kalulu from school   and the two returned to Africa.  

In 1877, Stanley while using Kalulu as his servant, embarked on an expedition in the Congo to find the Source of river Nile.

Unfortunately, during this trip Kalulu died in a tragic accident after his canoe plunged hundreds of feet down a water fall on the Congo River. The waterfall was later named 'Kalulu Falls' in his honour...
