Cudjoe Kazoola Lewis (c. 1841 – July 17, 1935), born Oluale Kossola, and also known as Cudjo Lewis, was the third to last adult survivor of the Atlantic slave trade between Africa and the United States. Together with 115 other African captives, he was brought to the United States on board the ship Clotilda in 1860. The captives were landed in backwaters of the Mobile River near Mobile, Alabama, and hidden from authorities. The ship was scuttled to evade discovery, and remained undiscovered until January 2018.

  • Cudjoe Kazoola Lewis o Cudjo Lewis, nascut Oluale Kossola, (Regne de Dahomei, c. 1841 - , Alabama, 17 de juliol de 1935), va ser un dels darrers supervivents coneguts del comerç d'esclaus a l'Atlàntic entre l'Àfrica i els Estats Units. Juntament amb 115 captius africans més, va ser portat als Estats Units a bord del vaixell el 1860. Els captius van ser desembarcats en remans del , prop de Mobile (ciutat d'Alabama) i d'amagat de les autoritats. El vaixell va ser destruït per eludir el descobriment i no va ser trobat fins al 2019.Després de la guerra civil i l'emancipació, Lewis i altres membres del grup Clotilda van quedar lliures. Alguns d'ells van fundar una comunitat a Magazine Point, al nord de Mobile, que va acollir d'altres ex-esclaus nascuts a l’Àfrica. Ara designada com a Districte Històric d’Africatown, la comunitat va ser afegida al Registre Nacional de Llocs Històrics el 2012. A la vellesa, Kossola va ajudar a conservar la memòria dels captius del Clotilda proporcionant informació de la història del grup als visitants, entre els quals hi va haver l’artista i esciptora i la també escriptora i folklorista Zora Neale Hurston. Va viure fins al 1935 i es va pensar durant molt de temps que era l'últim supervivent del Clotilda, fins que un parell d'estudis de la historiadora Hannah Durkin van identificar dues supervivents més del Clotilda que encara vivien el 1935: , que va morir el 1937, i , que va morir el 1940.

  • Cudjoe Lewis (* circa 1841 in Benin als Oluale Kossola; † 17. Juli 1935), auch Cudjo Lewis, war ein Yoruba aus Westafrika (dem heutigen Benin), der 1860 versklavt und in die Vereinigten Staaten entführt wurde. Er war der drittletzte Überlebende des zu diesem Zeitpunkt eigentlich schon seit 52 Jahren verbotenen Atlantischen Sklavenhandels. Nachdem auch der Besitz und nicht nur der Transport von Sklaven aus Afrika in den USA im Jahr 1865 verboten wurde, verbrachte er dort die restlichen 67 Jahre seines Lebens als freier Mann. (de)

The captives were landed in backwaters of the Mobile River near Mobile, Alabama, and hidden from authorities. The ship was scuttled to evade discovery, and remained undiscovered until January 2018. After the Civil War and emancipation, Lewis and other members of the Clotilda group became free. A number of them founded a community at Magazine Point, north of Mobile, Alabama. They were joined there by others born in Africa. Now designated as the Africatown Historic District, the community was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2012. In old age Kossola preserved the experiences of the Clotilda captives by providing accounts of the history of the group to visitors, including Mobile artist and author Emma Langdon Roche and author and folklorist Zora Neale Hurston. He lived to 1935 and was long thought to be the last survivor of the Clotilda, until historian Hannah Durkin identified two longer-lived Clotilda survivors, who made the voyage as children: Redoshi, who died in 1937, and Matilda McCrear, who died in 1940.

  • Cudjoe Kazoola Lewis (ca. 1841 – Africatown, 17 luglio 1935) è stato uno schiavo di origine africana (della zona del Benin), naturalizzato cittadino degli Stati Uniti nel 1868. Proveniva dal carico della 'Clotilda', che è ritenuta l'ultima nave negriera ad aver trasportato illegalmente schiavi neri dall'Africa agli Stati Uniti, nell'anno 1860. Di tale carico egli fu una delle persone che sopravvisse più a lungo, ed ebbe modo di raccontare i suoi ricordi e le sue esperienze, a ricercatori e scrittori, tra cui soprattutto Emma Langdon Roche (1878-1945) e Zora Neale Hurston.

  • Cudjoe Kazoola Lewis , met zijn Afrikaanse naam Oluale Kossola, was een van de laatste overlevers van de Atlantische slavenhandel tussen Afrika en de Verenigde Staten. Samen met 115 andere West-Afrikaanse gevangenen werd hij in 1860 vanuit Ouidah illegaal naar Amerika gevoerd aan boord van het schip Clotilda van Timothy Meahrer. Ze werden clandestien aan land gebracht in Mobile, Alabama, en het schip deed men zinken om ontdekking te voorkomen. Na de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog kregen Lewis en anderen die met hem waren verscheept de vrijheid. Hun verzoek tot repatriëring kreeg geen gevolg. Ze gingen in gemeenschap leven in Magazine Point, toen nog ten noorden van Mobile, en hielden hun taal en traditie in ere. In de plaats, sinds 2012 opgenomen in het National Register of Historic Places als Africatown, gaf de oude Lewis uitleg over de ervaringen van de groep aan bezoekers. Zijn verhaal is in 1927 opgetekend door Zora Neale Hurston, maar moest wachten tot 2018 alvorens het integraal werd gepubliceerd onder de titel Barracoon: The Story of the Last "Black Cargo". (nl)
